Performing a Full Installation of Windows NT Server 4.0

The first SYSTEM DRIVE is larger than 1024 MB.

There are no partitions already defined on the SYSTEM DRIVES.

In addition, after the 1024 MB partition has been created during the NT installation, the reboot will fail (see step 8 below).

If the reboot fails, begin the installation again. This time, you will be able to remove the 1024 MB partition and replace it with the full

2048 MB partition. After the 2048 MB partition has been created, the installation will proceed normally.

4.Select the file system you want to use. If the disk was previously formatted as FAT, you have the option to convert it to NTFS. Otherwise, you have the option to format the disk as FAT or NTFS, or to retain the existing file structures. Select the option you prefer, and press Enter.

5.Setup formats the partition as you have instructed. This may take from a few minutes to a few hours, depending upon the size of the partition and the type of disk and controller in your system.

6.After the formatting is complete, you are prompted for the name of the directory where Windows NT Server will be installed. Enter the name of the directory, and press Enter. Files are copied onto your hard disk from the installation CD-ROM.

7.When informed that the current portion of setup has completed successfully, remove any flex disk still in the drive and press Enter.

WARNING: Contrary to the instructions on the screen, wait several minutes before pressing Enter. If you do not wait, the server’s caching disk controller may not have enough time to complete all writing operations, and your system disk may not be installed correctly.

8.Your system reboots and automatically loads Windows NT Server.

Note: If installing to system drives connected to the Mylex DAC 960/Digital SWXCR-EX RAID controller adapter, and the reboot fails, restart the installation. This time, in the procedure outlined in step 3 above, you will be able to remove the 1024 MB partition and replace it with the full 2048 MB partition. After the 2048 MB partition has been created, the installation will proceed normally.
