FIX: Acquiring TEXTMODE drivers for ServerRaid 8k

Scenario:

I need to boot to Ghost and make an image of the array on my IBM x3500
server with ServeRaid 8k card, but ghost does not natively support
this SAS controller (I am using the Ghost 10 Recovery Boot CD, so I
can press F6 during boot to load drivers)


Problem:

All I can see on the IBM site is for the complete ServeRaid CD image
to download. There do not seem to be TEXTMODE drivers available for
download.


Solution:

I had to pull them off of the IBM ServerGuide (8.1). ServerGuide is
the IBM pre-installation CD for loading the NOS.

The SAS driver I was looking for resides in the CD\SGUIDE\W2003DRV\
$OEM$\$1\DRV\SRSAS folder on the CD. Copy these files to the root of
the floppy.
