OS INSTALLATION TIPS

Below is Altos R520 OS certification matrix:

Operating System Status Note

Windows 2000 Advanced Server, Service Pack 4

Windows Server 2003 x64 Enterprise Edition

Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition SP1

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4.0 EM64T Update 3

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4.0 Update 3

SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 9 EM64T SP3

SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 9 SP3 Certified

NetWare 6.5 Support Pack5 Certified

The drivers required for the OS installation can be found on the EasyBUILD 7.1 build 400 (or later). We suggest that you use the drivers contained in the EasyBUILD 7.1 build 400 (or later), as these drivers are tested and qualified by Acer.

Tested

Certified

There are two ways you can get the drivers. You can either make diskettes from EasyBUILD 7.1 build 400 (or later), or put it in the optical drive and search the driver directly.

NOTE. In this section, we assume the OS is installed on the HDD connected to the onboard SATA RAID, integrated SAS SW RAID or integrated SAS HW RAID.

NOTE. You need an external USB floppy drive to load the driver during the OS installation.
