SuSE Linux Installation
Note:
Release 7.7 of the 3ware code set (including firmware,
driver, and 3DM) supports SuSE versions 8.1 and 8.2
As a Plug and Play device, the Escalade ATA RAID Controller may be
configured to be your system’s boot device or you can use another device,
such as a disk attached to the motherboard as your boot device. Use your
system’s Setup utility to set the boot order according to how you install your
operating system.
If you have a new drive configuration without an operating system and want
to install Linux on a drive managed by 3ware’s ATA RAID controller, follow
the instructions in:
Installing the ATA RAID controller while installing SuSE Linux with
YaST2
(page 68).
If you are installing the ATA RAID controller on a system that already has the
operating system installed on a unit connected to another controller, follow
the instructions in:
Installing the ATA RAID controller on systems that boot from a different
device
(page 70).
Note:
If you wish to upgrade to a newer 3ware Escalade Linux
driver, please refer to the latest Release Notes published on our
website at http://www.3ware.com.
