4.1Installing the Driver in a New SuSE SLES Linux System

Note: If you use Service Pack (SP) 1 or SP 2, you need to load the driver. If you use SP 3 RC 2, the MegaSAS driver is already on the CD.

Perform the following steps to install the MegaRAID device driver in a new SuSE SLES Linux system:

Step 1. Boot the server with the SLES SP CD-ROM Disk 1.

The system BIOS must support booting from a CD-ROM. BIOS settings might require changes to allow CD-ROM booting. See your system documentation.

Step 2. At the installation message, press F6, then select

Installation and press ENTER.

Note: Follow screen instructions to switch between operating system CDs and operating system CD service packs.

Step 3. Put the driver update diskette in the drive bay, and install normally.
