HP I2000 Istruzioni per il montaggio

Read Before Installing a Different O/S

for i2000 hp workstations

The hp workstation i2000 supports multiple operating systems (O/S). Each O/S can use a different disk

partitioning type. For example, Microsoft® Windows® XP 64-bit Edition supports the new GUID

Partition Table (GPT) and requires it for system drives. HP-UX uses a proprietary disk partitioning type.

The disk types typically are incompatible, especially on the system drive. In order to change operating

systems it is recommended, if not required, to low-level format the hard drive.

The QLogic SCSI card included with your i2000 workstation provides a low-level format utility

accessible during the SCSI POST. Low-level formatting ensures that any disk structures are removed

from the drive. The following procedure describes the use of the low-level format utility. Note that you

must backup all data prior to low-level formatting. All applications and data will be lost.

Low-level Format Procedure

1. Turn on the i2000. The SCSI POST is the first screen displayed.

2. During the SCSI POST, press <ALT>-Q. You will see the QLogic Fast!Util menu.

3. Select “SCSI Disk Utility” and enter.

4. Select “Select SCSI Bus 0” and enter.

5. Select ID 0 and enter. This assumes the boot drive is on Bus 0 at SCSI ID 0.

For example, you may see the following listed as your first drive:

0 QUANTUM ATLAS10K2-TY184L DA40

6. Select Low-level Format and enter.

7. Select “Continue With Format” and enter

8. This should take 30-40 minutes, but depends on the size of your hard drive.

9. At the end follow the menus to reboot the system. Your hard drive is completely clean.

Before you install an operating system that is different from the one currently installed on your i2000

workstation, the following tasks must be performed:

• Reformat the hard drive

• Verif

the correct settin

for edd30

A6037- 90009

Verifying edd30

The edd30 [on | off] command toggles the BIOS option to display device path according to the edd30

specification. If the BIOS option is off, the root disk must be located at target 0 (SCSI ID 0, Bus 0).

Microsoft® Windows® XP 64-bit Edition and Linux require edd30 to be off. HP-UX requires edd30 to

be on.

To run the edd30 command:

1. During the boot process, at the EFI Boot Manager, select “EFI Shell”.

Note: The EFI Boot Manager will count down and then select the default boot option unless the

user presses an arrow key.

2. Enter one of the following command lines:

edd30 off

edd30 on

as required by the O/S you will be using.
