Windows – F6 Driver and USB Floppy
So today I`m installing brand new Intel Server based on S5000 Motherboard, Quad Core Xeon, 12GB of memory,…
And here is the fun part. This motherboard does not have floppy connector on it. Fine with me. 🙂 Boy I was wrong.
I have Sony USB Floppy and everything should work fine. Yea, right.
The problem is that the first part of setup (loading the Mass Storage driver) is not handled by Windows, but instead by the BIOS’s floppy emulation. But the latter part, after formatting the hard drive is handled by Windows. And some of them are not recognized by the builtin USB storage drivers.
So here is the solution. Open txtsetup.oem located on floppy and add device ID manualy after [HardwareIds.scsi.(device name)]. Here is copy from my .oem file.
[HardwareIds.scsi.MegaSR]
id=”PCIVEN_8086&DEV_27c3&SUBSYS_10a51734″, “MegaSR”
id=”PCIVEN_8086&DEV_2682&SUBSYS_D001144D”, “MegaSR”
…
…
…
id=”PCIVEN_1000&DEV_0055&SUBSYS_D001144D”, “MegaSR”
id=”PCIVEN_1000&DEV_0057&SUBSYS_30171054″, “MegaSR”
#Additional USB floppy Device IDs
id = “USBVID_054C&PID_002C”, “usbstor” #Sony
id = “USBVID_0409&PID_0040”, “usbstor” #NEC
id = “USBVID_03F0&PID_2001”, “usbstor” #HP
id = “USBVID_055D&PID_2020”, “usbstor” #Samsung
id = “USBVID_08BD&PID_1100”, “usbstor” #Iomega
O yes. I would love to use Intel Deployment Assistant but it`s only for 32-bit Windows (at least version I received or downloaded from Intel Download Site – 1.3).
