Topic: [REQ] New drivers for IBM ServeRAID Adapters

DriverPack Mass Storage 7.04 currently contains two older versions of the device drivers for the IBM ServeRAID Controllers.
Old 1) IBM ServeRAID 7.00.14 ipsraidn based ServeRAID Adapters for Windows 2000 and Windows XP
Folder D\M\I\1
Section [I-1] in DriverPack_MassStorage_wnt5_x86-32.ini
NOTE: This driver is not intended for Windows 2003 and the corrections are listed below

Old 2) IBM ServeRAID 7.00.14 960 i960-based ServeRAID Adapters for Windows 2000 and Windows XP
Folder D\M\I\2
Section [I-2] in DriverPack_MassStorage_wnt5_x86-32.ini
NOTE: This driver is not intended for Windows 2003 and the corrections are listed below

The updated device drivers are available from the following web page.
http://www-304.ibm.com/jct01004c/system … nd=5000008

If you like, I can e-mail or FTP the newer version of the D\M\I folder

1) Remove the current D\M\I\1 folder and remove the current [I-1} section

2) Remove the current D\M\I\2 folder and remove the current [I-2] section

3) IBM ServeRAID v7.12.11 ipsraidn based ServeRAID Adapters for Windows 2000 and Windows XP
3.1) Download 39y4887.exe from
http://www-304.ibm.com/jct01004c/system … nd=5000008
3.2) Place a blank floppy in your A: drive and run 39y4887.exe. This will create a floppy with the device driver.
3.3) Create a new folder D\M\I\1
3.4) Copy the contents of A:\Windows\win2k_xp\scsi\ppcdrvr to D\M\I\1
3.5) Create a new [I-1] section:

4) IBM ServeRAID v7.12.11 i960-based ServeRAID Adapters for Windows 2000 and Windows XP
4.1) Download 39y4887.exe from
http://www-304.ibm.com/jct01004c/system … nd=5000008
4.2) Place a blank floppy in your A: drive and run 39y4887.exe. This will create a floppy with the device driver.
4.3) Create a new folder D\M\I\2
4.4) Copy the contents of A:\Windows\win2k_xp\scsi\ivdrvr to D\M\I\2
4.5) Create a new [I-2] section:

5) IBM ServeRAID v7.12.11 i960-based ServeRAID Adapters for Windows 2003
5.1)Download ibm_dd_ips_7.12.11_win2k3_i386.zip from
http://www-304.ibm.com/jct01004c/system … nd=5000008
5.2) Extract the contents of the downloaded zip file
5.3) Create a new folder D\M\I\3
5.4) Copy the unzipped files to D\M\I\3
5.5) Create a new [I-3] section

Question: From steps 4 and 5 above, the IBM ServeRAID v7.12.11 i960 driver in step uses the name "nfrd960.sys" for Windows 2000/XP. In step 5, the i960 driver also uses the name "nfrd960.sys" for Windows 2003.  Should we rename nfrd960.sys from step 5 to something else?  Or, is this ok because the .ini file states the skipIfOS values and [I-2] and [I-3] will not be used at the same time?

6) IBM ServeRAID v8.40 8i 8k 8k-l SAS-SATA Adapters for Windows 2000/XP
6.1) Download ibm_dd_aacraid_5.2.0.11829_windows_32-64.exe from
http://www-304.ibm.com/jct01004c/system … nd=5000008
6.2) Extract the contents of the downloaded .exe file
6.3) Create a new folder D\M\I\4
6.4) Copy the unzipped folder \image\disk1\2000-XP to D\M\I\4
6.5) Create a new [I-4] section

7) IBM ServeRAID v8.40 8i 8k 8k-l SAS-SATA Adapters for Windows 2003
7.1) Download ibm_dd_aacraid_5.2.0.11829_windows_32-64.exe from
http://www-304.ibm.com/jct01004c/system … nd=5000008
7.2) Extract the contents of the downloaded .exe file
7.3) Create a new folder D\M\I\5
7.4) Copy the unzipped folder \image\disk1\2003-i386 to D\M\I\5
7.5) Create a new [I-5] section

8) IBM ServeRAID v1.2.5929 8e Adapters for Windows 2000/XP/2003
8.1) Download ibm_dd_hradpxx_1.2.5929_windows_i386.zip from
http://www-304.ibm.com/jct01004c/system … nd=5000008
8.2) Extract the contents of the downloaded .zip file
8.3) Create a new folder D\M\I\6
8.4) Copy the unzipped folder \adp94xx to D\M\I\6
8.5) Create a new [I-6] section

Re: [REQ] New drivers for IBM ServeRAID Adapters

Thats funny, I'm testing Adaptec ICP RAID controllers ICP9024RO and ICP5085LI just now, so I had updated [AD-2] in my own copy.
I downloaded the XP version from here:
http://www.adaptec.com/en-US/downloads/ … +ICP9085LI
It seems to be the same as your Folder D\M\I\4 v5.2.0.11829, but the Adaptec download is some older and is not signed.

I've also updated my *.ini as follows:

[AD-2]
ms_count 			= 2
ms_1_deviceName		= "Adaptec SATA/SCSI RAID Controllers"
ms_1_tag			= "aac"
ms_1_sysFile		= "aac.sys"

ms_2_isBusExtender	= false

So I think this time we can bring them together, since the IBM drivers contain all IDs the Adaptec ICP files also contain as far I can see.

Re: [REQ] New drivers for IBM ServeRAID Adapters

i would NOT do that the ini is not done correctly

[I-1]
ms_count             = 1
ms_1_deviceName        = "IBM ipsraidn ServeRAID Adapters (Windows 2000/XP 32-bit)"
ms_1_tag            = "ipsraidn"
ms_1_sysFile        = "ipsraidn.sys"
ms_1_hwids            = "PCI\VEN_1014&DEV_002E&SUBSYS_022E1014&REV_10,PCI\VEN_1014&DEV_002E&SUBSYS_002E1014&REV_0D,PCI\VEN_1014&DEV_002E&SUBSYS_00000000&REV_04,PCI\VEN_1014&DEV_002E&SUBSYS_00000000&REV_03,PCI\VEN_1014&DEV_002E&SUBSYS_00000000&REV_02"
ms_1_isBusExtender    = false
ms_1_exc_disableIfOS= "w2k"
ms_1_exc_replaceIfOS= "w2k,wxp"
ms_1_exc_skipIfOS= "W2k3"

That Is wrong.... replaceIfOS= "w2k,wxp" 
implies that ipsraidn.sys exists in a native w2k or XP install and must be backed up removed and overwritten. it is not natively supported in either and is not a replacement. 

This may seem a small detail but it will totaly blow up the slipstream of driverpacks base. It affects which entries in which files get changed during the slipstream process. Skip does mean don't use at all, as you thought. You also did not indicate that you had properly groomed your files before making the folders.

There is actually a long list of things wrong but I dont want to seem to be flaming you.

So

1) all of your ini's are done incorrectly and although may work on your OS and PC will not work as intended (on ANY OS / machine)

2) your files are probably not technicaly "ready" for the pack (but probably work). 
Please add [REQ] in front your first post title and well do it correctly for you!

I would REALLY REALLY REALLY like to thank you for being so thorough and spending so much time putting this together. very nice documentation of what you did. (other than the fact it is trashed i like it)

Perhaps you would like to join the team and we can assist you with adding and testing drivers.
Muiz (Leader of the Packs- hee hee) is always looking for motivated people who can document thier work.


These two have a second thread running here too

also please read jaaks post at the below link and understand more of what im not trashing him about!

Re: [REQ] New drivers for IBM ServeRAID Adapters

1) It is unfortunate that the ini files are thrash.  I would really like to see them done correctly so that we can all learn from the mistakes. More importantly, we need to keep it working smile

2) I added [REQ] to the topic title.

I would like to join the team. In addition to Mass Storage drivers, I also have more drivers for graphics, sound and security chipsets. Also have enhancements for DpsFnshr.exe. How do I become a member?

Thanks for the thanks.

@jtdoom

Hi jtdoom,

Like a great bottle of wine, sometimes you have to wait for perfection.
Thanks for revisiting and updating the driver pack with the newer version of the IBM drivers.
