Read This First
Before you start to install your new Adaptec controller, please take time
to read this booklet. It contains an overview of the installation process
and the other important information. If you have experience installing
RAID subsystems, reading this can save you time and make the
installation easier.
If you need more detailed information, the complete product manuals
are on the Adaptec CD-ROM. The table on page 8 is a guide to help you
match what you want to know with the product manual that has the
information you need.

Before beginning your installation, review the errata and release
notes associated with Adaptec SCSI RAID controllers, software and
documentation. To read this information, select Release Notes from
the View Documentation list or open the read.me file in the root
directory of the CD with a text editor.

Using the Adaptec CD
The Adaptec SCSI RAID CD is a bootable media. You can use this CD
to configure disk arrays in a host system that does not yet have an
operating system installed. The CD-ROM drive must be attached to a
controller and host system that recognizes bootable CDs. Some systems
might require you to change the system BIOS configuration so that the
CD-ROM drive is used as a boot device.
When the CD is used as a boot source, an operating system is loaded
and then the Adaptec SCSI RAID installation utility starts. You will be
able to read the product documentation, install I2O drivers, run Storage
Manager, and create disks to use for driver installation when the
operating system being installed cannot use the CD-ROM as a source
for the files.
4
When the Adaptec SCSI RAID Family install utility appears, you have
the following choices:
■Create driver disks
This selection will display a dialog that lists the operating
systems for which disks can be created. This lets you create
disks for operating system driver installation procedures that
cannot read directly from the CD-ROM.
■Launch RAID configuration utility
This selection starts the Storage Manager application so that
you can configure your RAID subsystem and build disk
arrays.
■View documentation
This selection displays a list of the available product manuals
and the read.me file with the latest release notes. Select a
document name and click on OK to view the information.
■Start a command shell
This selection starts a Linux command shell. This lets you
mount additional device or enter other system commands
that might be required during the installation.
5
■Reboot
This selection will restart the computer system. As soon as the
system begins to restart, remove the CD from the CD-ROM
drive if you do not want to use it for the boot device.
If you are using a Microsoft Windows operating system, put the CD
into your CD-ROM drive. If you have Autorun turned on, the Adaptec
setup utility will automatically start and display the Adaptec
installation menu with four options:
■Install Adaptec Storage Manager Pro
Installs the Storage Manager Pro software and Java
environment for Microsoft Windows. You must install Storage
Manager using the Typical option to enable configuration
management.
■Install Adaptec Storage Manager
Installs the Storage Manager software, I2O driver for
Microsoft Windows.
■View Latest Information
Displays the Release Notes which contain the latest information
for Adaptec SCSI RAID products and software.
6
■Create Floppy Disks
Lets you create disks for driver installation on systems that
require them to install the software or drivers.
■Install Adobe Acrobat Reader
Installs Adobe Acrobat Reader for Windows to let you view
the Adaptec documentation in PDF format. Versions of
Acrobat Reader for other platforms are also included, see
Installing Adobe Acrobat Reader on page 8.
If the Autorun menu does not appear automatically:
1Click the Start button.
2Select Run.
3Typ e d:\autorun.exe
where d: is the drive letter assigned to your CD-ROM drive.
4Click OK to run the program.
Follow the prompts to complete the installation.

Adaptec Product Documentation
Detailed product documentation is supplied in Adobe Acrobat PDF
format. A list of supplied documents is given in the table on page 8.
Both Adobe Acrobat Reader and Adobe Acrobat Viewer are provided
on the Adaptec CD-ROM. If you need to know specific information
about your controller or the software, you need to use one of these PDF
reader programs. You can also use a different computer with Acrobat
Reader already installed.
Adobe Acrobat Viewer can be used on any host system that has a Java
Virtual Machine (JVM) installed. You must have Java Runtime
Environment 1.1.8 installed to use Acrobat Viewer.
The installation utility lets you choose whether or not you want to
install Adobe Acrobat Reader.
When you find the manual you need, open the document by double
clicking the file name or icon. You can use the Table of Contents or the

download the product manuals. The manuals available on the Adaptec
web site may be more recent versions than those on the CD.
