HP NetServer Installation Guide 23
12. Make a NT4.0 Drivers floppy disk by choosing Create Driver Diskette(s), Execute, and
following the prompts. Label the floppy disk NT 4.0 Drivers.
Return to the Navigator main menu.
Install Windows NT
NOTE Windows NT must be installed from floppy disks, not the CD, so that the mass storage
drivers will be loaded correctly. If you have not created a set of Windows NT boot
floppy disks, see Software in part “1 What’s Needed” of the installation guide supplement
for additional information.
1. Insert the boot floppy disk for Windows NT4.0 and exit Navigator to reboot the server.
2. When Windows NT Setup prompts to detect mass storage devices, skip detection and manually specify
the mass storage drivers:
• The drivers are loaded from the NT 4.0 Drivers floppy disk you created from the Navigator CD.
• First, load the driver for the device you want to boot from. For drives in the LH 4 internal bays this
will normally be the embedded SCSI Symbios driver or embedded NetRAID.
• Secondly, load the IDE driver, since the CD drive is on the IDE bus.
• Finally, load any other mass storage drivers you need. If you are using the Fibre Channel HBA for
shared storage do not load the HP Fibre Channel driver at this time. It will be loaded later.
3. Continue the installation using floppy disks #2 and #3 and select the following options when prompted:
• Choose the unpartitioned space and install Windows NT.
• Choose NTFS file system
• When prompted to search for a Network Adapter, load NIC drivers for both the intra-cluster and the
client LAN. Be sure to load the correct intra-cluster LAN driver version as specified in the
Configuration Guide for your cluster. If you are using two HP D5013A/B NICs, load the driver
twice, once for the intra-cluster NIC and once for the client NIC.
• Make sure TCP/IP Protocol is selected.
Other protocols may be selected in addition, but TCP/IP is required.
• If you are using two HP D5013A/B NICs, when prompted for TCP/IP Properties:
Make sure adapter [2] is highlighted and specify its IP address and subnet mask. This will be the
LAN adapter for the intra-cluster LAN.
Select adapter [1] and specify its IP address and subnet mask. This will be the LAN adapter for the
client LAN.
Set TCP/IP Properties for DNS, WINS Address, etc. at this time.
NOTE The Client LAN IP and Intra-cluster LAN IP addresses must be on different subnets.
4. Once the NT installation is complete, the D5013A/B NIC drivers must be manually set to the correct
LAN speed. Log on and from the start menu select: Settings, Control Panel, Network, and
Adapters. For each D5013A/B adapter, select Properties then Settings and set the network
speed to the appropriate setting (either 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps) for your network. The intra-cluster LAN
should be set to 100 Mbps. Do not use the Auto setting.
