CREATING A DRIVER DISKETTE
There are two methods to create the Installation Diskette:

MAKING A DISKETTE UNDER MS-DOS:
1) Save the file into a temporary directory. 
Please ensure that the filename is a DOS 8.3 name. 

2) Locate the "rawrite" utility which is included with SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 9 (x86).

3) Label a blank, formatted 3.5-inch diskette as "ProLiant SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 9 (x86) Driver Diskette". 
Next, insert the diskette in the diskette drive. Then, use the following commands 
(assuming your ProLiant Disk Image is at the location c: and your CD-ROM is drive d:)

	C:\> d:\<path>\rawrite 

Enter disk image source file name: aic7xxx-6.3.10-1.sles9i586.i586.img
Enter target diskette drive: a: 
Please insert a formatted diskette into drive A: and press --ENTER-- : Enter

MAKING A DISKETTE UNDER A LINUX-LIKE OS:

1)  Save the file into a temporary directory.

2)  To make a diskette under Linux (or any other Linux-like operating system), you must have permission to write
to the device representing a 3.5-inch diskette drive (known as /dev/fd0 under Linux)

3)  First, label a blank, formatted diskette appropriately (ProLiant SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 9 (x86) Driver Diskette). Insert the diskette
into the floppy drive, but DO NOT issue the mount command:

	# dd if=aic7xxx-6.3.10-1.sles9i586.i586.img  of=/dev/fd0 bs=1440k

4)  This command creates a diskette containing the image of the input file to an
output file (of=/dev/fd0) using the diskette size of 1440k (1.44MB).
