Hello,
I've got a new ML350 with a Smart Array 641 Controller. We're trying
to create a boot disk which will handle pre-OS configuration
(including Smart Start, automated).
In order to do so, I need to boot from a floppy into DOS 6.22 with
drivers to support the Smart Array 641 controller that can be
incorporated into the config.sys - so that FDISK can see the drives.
Tried the Windows text-mode drivers, and a third party ASPI driver.
Nothing on the HP website as far as DOS drivers for this device.
Any idea where I can find such a driver? Best I've come up with is a
DOS ASPI file for the Smart Array's chipset, but these new Smart
Arrays don't seem to support ASPI.
Any help would be much appreciated, we're stumped.
