Precautions for installing Linux on a server-Linux Enterprise Application-Linux server application information. Now, more and more users need to install LINUX on the server. Because boot disks on the ibm pc Server do not support LINUX installation, you must manually install the boot disks. After manual installation, you must first determine whether the server uses a RAID card or a RAID card. If you use a RAID card, you can use the server raid disk to create a drive. If you do not need a RAID card, you need to make a SCIS card driver. The driver tool is available under the TOOLS directory in the server raid disk. If you find the correct driver imgfile and place it in the same directory as RAW in the TOOLS directory, run RAW to make the driver a 3-inch disk.
If the customer wants to install an older version of LINUX and the server raid disk has this driver, they can only download the corresponding driver from the Internet. However, I cannot find it on the official IBM website. I can only find it on www.adaptec.com, and then use the above method to make the driver. Then I can install LINUX normally.
