RE: Best Manual for Scratch Install

You should have ordered this when you got your i5.  It's the Backup and
Recovery guide.  Its not just the best, it's the ONLY Book.  This book
should be in your data center and also kept offsite with your DR plan in my
opinion.  This is what we recommend for our customers.

Subject: Best Manual for Scratch Install

I thought I had the correct manual for doing a scratch install, but actually
this one was talking about doing an A Type IPL, which assumes that the base
OS is already on the disks.

I'm doing a scratch install from CD, and I was trying to figure out when it
was going to ask me about my disk drives and how to set up the RAID set.  I
figured out how to do a Type D IPL, so I'm moving along, but now I get the
queasy feeling that I'm not as prepared as I thought I was <wry grin>.

Is there a good step-by-step scratch install document in the InfoCenter?
