I would like to know how I install W2K on the D: drive, since I am using a SCSI and IDE RAID setup...

[ManuTOmanU]

I have been trying hard to get my setup working,,,

And the problem is that the SCSI (OS drive win ME and W2K) keeps changeing to the d:

After doing that the computer doesn't find the right files to start.-..

If I am about to install W2K, can I tell the path I wanna install it???

Right now it looks like that...

C: = Quantum RAID
D: = 4. Atlas 10KII
E: = 4. Atlas 10KII

Now here are a couple of questions,
How do I install win2k on the SCSI drive?
I tried to unhug the RAID while installing the OS, and let it be recognized later on,,, Tried that 5 or 6 times,,, ther is no way...

Well now I am about to think if I can just install it on D:???

How do I do that, does the W2K setup ask me where I would like to install?

Now if I do so, install on D:, and was about to add a prtition to the C: (IDE RAID), what would that be? D: or would it be after all SCSI drives...? F:???

What do I do?
And how about NTFS or FAT32????

I wanna use the computer on a network where the other computers are FAT 32...

When you run the win2k install from dos, at the bottom of the screen, it will say something like "Press F6 to install SCSI RAID controller drivers" or something like that. So right when you run setup, look for that message, then click F6. Then you'll have to install the drivers with the manufacturers floppy. Then when thats taken care of, win2k will go through the setup process and it should come to the point where you pick the hard drive you want the install to go to. You should see your scsi drives there, so choose one, and let it install. I dont have SCSI, but I would imagine that this is how you'd go about it. Unless anyone else has suggestions =)?

Oh, and if you need to have other computers with FAT32 to view your files from the network, then you'll have to use a FAT32 partition as well. You could have your C: drive formatted as NTFS (which is slightly faster and more robust), then have your other partitions formatted as FAT32, so you can store files there, and allow other network computers access to them.

Thanks...

Is there anybody who knows about the partitions? What happens if I put the OS on d: and afterwards am about to add a few partitions to C:???
