Running the AFU from the Command Line
Note: You can also run a menu-based AFU (see page 117).
To run the AFU from the command line:
1 Power off your computer, insert the first AFU floppy disk, then
power on your computer.
If your computer isn’t set up to boot from the bootable floppy disk,
enter the system setup utility to change the setting.
2 At the DOS command, type AFU followed by a command (see page
119) and any switches you want.
Note: To find a controller number, type AFU LIST , then press Enter .
The AFU processes the command, prompts you to insert additional
floppy disks as needed, exits, and reports either success or an error
message code.
To update a RAID controller’s flash using the command line, see
page 123.
