Server Board SDS2 does not service this interrupt when the BIOS Logo screen
is enabled.
Implication: When booting the Intel Server Board SDS2 with an Intel RAID Controller or ICP
Vortex* RAID controller installed, the system will halt during POST when the
Intel Server Board SDS2 BIOS Logo screen is enabled.
Workaround: A workaround for this issue is to press the ESC key when the Intel BIOS logo
screen appears. Alternately, the Intel BIOS logo screen may be disabled. To
disable the Intel BIOS logo screen, access the Intel Server Board SDS2 BIOS
Setup (by pressing F2 when the Intel BIOS logo screen appears). In BIOS
Setup, change the Advanced à Boot-Time Diagnostic Screen option to
“Enabled”.
Status: Fixed: For the ICP Vortex RAID Controllers, please contact ICP technical
support. Please refer to Technical Advisory 507 for firmware release schedules
and additional details.
6. Intel® Server Board SDS2 CD-ROM issues
Problem: The Intel Server Board SDS2 system resource CD-ROM has the following two
issues:
1. The BYO Platform Confidence Test Manual on the SDS2 system resource
CD-ROM is Rev. 2.0 dated 9/2001, rather than the latest Rev. 2.2 dated
10/2001. The instructions in the Rev. 2.0 manual for creating a bootable
Platform Confidence Test floppy diskette are not correct and do not contain
enough detail for the user to successfully create a bootable floppy diskette.
2. Editing a file with the DOS “Edit” command after booting to the SDS2
system resource CD-ROM will cause the system to hang.
Implication: A bootable Platform Confidence Test floppy diskette cannot be successfully
created by following the instructions in the SDS2 BYO Platform Confiedence
Test Manual Rev. 2.0 on the SDS2 system resource CD-ROM. Attempting to
edit a file with the DOS “Edit” command after booting to the SDS2 system
resource CD-ROM will cause the system to hang.
Workaround: Users should not use the DOS “Edit” command to edit files after booting to the
SDS2 System Resource CD-ROM. Users should also use the following
insturctions for the BYO Platform Confidence Test Manual Rev. 2.2 to create a
bootable Platform Confidence Test floppy diskette:
Installing the Server Board Platform Confidence Test Package on the Intel
Server Board SDS2:
1. Insert the resource CD into a Windows* based system and let the auto run
feature launch the graphical user interface (if auto run does not launch the
GUI, launch it manually by double clicking on your CDROM drive).
