Installing the Driver on an Existing
Operating System
As an installation option, you can choose to perform a standard installation by
installing the HBA driver on an existing operating system. This chapter describes
how to perform this operation.
Note – If you want to create a bootable array and install an operating system and
the HBA driver on that array, DO NOT perform the procedures in this chapter.
Instead, see “Creating a Bootable Array on an x64 System” on page 27 or “Creating
a Bootable Array on a SPARC System” on page 33.
