The following color codes are used to indicate the type or status of infor-
mation displayed on the screen.
• White text
Available option or informational text
• Yellow highlighting Current option on which you may choose to
take action
• Green text Item has been selected
• Light blue text Item is not available for selection
• Yellow text Informational text, describes an option
• Magenta text Spare options and boot options
• Red text Failed drive or other warning to user. For
example, informational text may be red if the

5.3 Initializing Disks from the BIOS
Before using new disks they must be initialized and at least the boot array
must be created using the RAIDCore BIOS Array Configuration Utility.
Initialization writes the configuration information to disk. The BIOS util-
ity can be used to create and manage arrays so that an operating system
can be installed on an array. The system is then booted from this array.
Notes: 1. When you highlight a disk from the Disk list,
the LEDs on the controller or a properly cabled
disk enclosure light up to identify that disk.
2. If you want to boot from another controller
within your system, you may need to disable
INT13 in the BIOS. See “Changing Controller
Options from the BIOS”.

BIOS Array Config Utility” in 5.2.
