The drivers required for the OS installation can be found on the EasyBUILD 7.1
build 100 (or later). We suggest that you use the drivers contained in the
EasyBUILD 7.1 build 100 (or later), as these drivers are tested and qualified by
Acer.
There are two ways you can get the drivers. You can either make diskettes
from EasyBUILD 7.1 build 100 (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 SAS or integrated SAS RAID.
NOTE. The internal USB floppy drive is an option. If you do not have this option
and you need to apply the driver during the OS installation, you need an
external USB floppy drive.
