8 Installing the Driver on an Existing Operating System
This chapter explains how to install your Adaptec RAID controller driver on an existing operating system.
Note: To install the driver while you're installing an operating system, see Installing
the Driver and an Operating System on page 48.
Before You Begin
Before you begin, install and connect your Adaptec RAID controller and internal disk drives (see Installing
the Controller and Disk Drives on page 36).
You must also create a driver disk before you begin installing the controller driver.
Note: For up-to-date operating system version support, visit the Adaptec Web Site
at www.adaptec.com. From the main menu select Support>Knowledgebase>Find
Answers. Select your controller type and OS support to generate a list of supported
operating systems and to download the latest drivers.
Creating a Driver Disk
This section describes how to create a driver disk for operating systems that require one. You will need
a USB ash drive to complete this task.
Windows operating systems do not require a driver disk; see Installing on Windows on page 59.
For Debian Linux, the driver is loaded directly from the OS installation DVD; see Installing on Debian
Linux on page 60.
For FreeBSD and VMware, you must copy the driver from the installation DVD and install it from the
local system; see Installing on FreeBSD on page 61 and Installing on VMware on page 62.
For all other OSs, create the driver disk using the Create Diskette menu on the Adaptec Installation
DVD.
To create a driver disk using the Create Diskette menu:
1. Set your system BIOS so that your computer boots from the DVD drive.
2. Turn on your computer, then insert the Adaptec Installation DVD.
3. Click Create Diskette, then select your operating system and version.
4. When prompted, insert a USB ash drive, then click OK.
The system creates the driver disk on the USB drive.
5. Remove and label the driver disk.
6. Continue with the instructions for your operating system:
For Red Hat, Cent OS, SuSE, or Fedora Linux, see Installing on Red Hat, Cent OS, SuSE, or Fedora
Linux on page 60.
For Ubuntu Linux, see Installing on Ubuntu Linux on page 60.
For Solaris, see Installing on Solaris on page 61.
Installing on Windows
Note: The following instructions apply to all supported Windows operating systems.
To install the driver on Windows:
1. Start or restart Windows.
The Found New Hardware Wizard opens and searches for the driver.
2. Insert the driver disk, then select Locate and Install Driver Software.... and Don't Search Online.
3. Click Next, then click Close.
4. When the installation is complete, remove the driver disk and restart your computer.
5. Continue with Managing Your Storage Space on page 64.
