emaulate a floppy dik 1.44

When you don't have a floppy and you need to setup XP or win2k or a similar windows os which needs non-standard drivers for the disk controller, you will have to make an unattended or slipstreamed installation CD which includes those drivers, that way you won't need a floppy. The following link is a very good tool to make such slipstreamed CD's. A further good thing about this is it is already combined with SP2.

I need a floppy to install my raid drivers.
How to emulate a usb as a floppy drive.

My server is a DELL Poweredge 1950 without floppy.
In the bios I can change to emulate usb to floppy.

But it will not work. I cannot read the files from the usbdrive.
The usb drive I formatted with FAT16 and FAT32. Both not work..

how to go on ?

You have to enable on Remote Access, PE1950 support DRAC 5, there might be an option.
Here i configured on a server with iDRAC6 (PE R710)
 
Hope this might help.

Thanks

is this then the emulation with a usbstick or just a floppy with usb connector ?
I HAVE NO FLOPPY WITH USB CONNECTOR.
I want to emulate a floppy with usb stick.

I think you need to create floppy Image to mount it via remote access.

Thanks

How can I do this ?

ok on monday the dell guys will come with an floppy disk.
But I think there is a way to emulate a floppy.

no one knows how to use the usb ports and a usb stick as a floppy dsic.
