IBM Netfinity 5000

I have an IBM Netfinity 5000 server with a SCSI RAID. I am having a bear of
a time figuring out how to properly load the SCSI drivers to install
Windows. Do you have any knowledge or suggestions???????

You need your RAID drivers on a floppy disk, then Hit F6 nearly right
after you boot into the XP install. You'll be prompted to hit the F6
key almost as soon as th install gets to the first blue screen.

I did that and it loaded the drivers, continued to load Windows then when
setup was to actually begin, it say that there are no hard drives found.

Apparently my BIOS version and device driver are both 7.10.18, but my
firmware version is 6.10.24
