Add 3rd party mass storage drivers to Recovery Console (Rev: 1.1)

After installing Windows XP Professional Operating System (OS) on the Dell PowerEdge 2600 server that had a spoilt SCSI CDROM drive, I have also installed the Recovery Console in the Windows XP OS. When the Dell PowerEdge 2600 server runs the Recovery Console that is installed at the hardisk, the Dell PowerEdge 2600 server LSI Logic drivers PERC 4/Di is still needed to prevent the Blue Screen 0x0000007B error from appearing.

As the SCSI diskette drive might become faulty one day, I need to add in the Dell PowerEdge 2600 server LSI Logic drivers PERC 4/Di drivers information to the installed Recovery Console so that I do not have to press [F6] and load them from the SCSI diskette drive. The steps are as shown below:


1) Added the mraid2k.sys [Downloaded from Dell PowerEdge 2600 server support website -> Windows 2000 OS drop down menu -> "SCSI RAID controllers" -> "LSI Logic - Driver" -> "PERC 4/Di" (Please choose according to your types of RAID Controller. You can check it from the monitor screen when the Dell PowerEdge 2600 server is booting up] into the Recovery Console I386 directory.


2) Added the below content on top of the existing content of txtsetup.sif in the Recovery Console I386 directory:

; ====== txtsetup.sif_Start ======

; Additional txtsetup.sif content of the Recovery Console at I386 directory
; in order to add Dell PowerEdge 2600 server,
; LSI Logic drivers PERC 4/Di driver info
