Manual Installation Procedure
Before manually installing the operating system, create a set of Compaq Support Paq
(CSP) diskettes, and then create a logical boot drive on the new server.
Creating CSP Diskettes
The CSP diskettes contain the drivers that you need during manual installation of the
operating system. To create these diskettes:
1. Insert the latest SmartStart CD into the CD-ROM drive of a server that is using
either Windows 2000 or Windows NT as the operating system.
2. On the Compaq System Utilities screen, select Create Support Software.
3. On the Diskette Builder screen, select Create Support Software From CD
Only.
4. Scroll down the list and select the CSP software for the operating system and
array controller that the new server will use.
5. Follow the on-screen instructions to create the diskettes. Depending on the
operating system, you may need to use up to six blank diskettes.
Creating a Logical Boot Drive
This is done using the Option ROM Configuration for Arrays (ORCA) utility.
1. Power up the server that is to have the operating system installed.
2. Press the F8 key to start ORCA when instructed to do so by a prompt that is
briefly displayed at the bottom of the screen.
NOTE: If you do not press the F8 key during the interval that the prompt is displayed, you
must restart the logical boot drive creation procedure.
3. Select Create Logical Drive.
4. Select the hard drives that are to constitute the logical boot drive.
5. Save the configuration and exit ORCA.

2. Press the F6 key when instructed to do so by a message that is briefly displayed
at the bottom of the screen.
NOTE: If you do not press the F6 key during the interval that the prompt is displayed, you
must restart the operating system installation.
After a delay that may last several minutes, the following message is displayed at
the bottom of the screen:
S=Specify Additional Device ENTER=Continue F3=Exit
3. Insert the CSP diskette into the diskette drive, and then press the Skey.
4. When the confirmation pop-up window is displayed, press the Enter key.
5. Select the array controller that the server is using, and then press the Enter key.
6. An on-screen message asks you to specify drivers for other hardware.
— If you do not have any additional drivers to install, press the Enter key.
— If you have more drivers to install, follow the on-screen prompts.
7. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the Windows 2000 installation.
Leave the diskette in the drive until instructed to remove it.

Microsoft Windows NT 4.0
1. Start the Windows NT installation directly from the operating system CD. Do not
use boot diskettes built from the CD.
2. Follow the on-screen instructions. When the blue Windows NT Setup screen is
displayed, immediately press the F6 key to begin driver installation.
IMPORTANT: There is no on-screen text to prompt you to press the F6 key. You must
press the F6 key within five seconds of the Windows NT Setup screen being displayed. If
the screen displays dialog in the bottom left hand corner before you press the F6 key, you
must restart the operating system installation.
3. Press the Skey to specify an additional device.
4. Scroll to Other, then press the Enter key.
5. You are prompted to insert your manufacturer-supplied diskette. Insert the CSP
diskette into the diskette drive, and then press the Enter key.
6. Select the array controller that the server is using, and then press the Enter key.
7. An on-screen message asks you to specify drivers for other hardware.
— If you do not have any additional drivers to install, press the Enter key.
— If you have more drivers to install, follow the on-screen prompts.
8. Follow the on-screen instructions to continue the operating system installation.
When you get to the Networking section of the installation process, the operating
system detects the driver for the Intel 82557 10/100 PCI Ethernet Adapter.
a. Deselect this driver.
b. Load the correct Intel network driver (NIC) from the net\intelnic
directory on the appropriate CSP diskette.
9. Continue with the installation process as prompted. After the server has
automatically rebooted, finish the installation of the operating system by
installing the latest storage drivers (CPQCISSE.SYS) from the SmartStart CD.
10. Install the latest service pack.
11. Install the CSP from the SmartStart CD.
