Installing AXD EFI Tools
Before you install AXD EFI tools, make sure that your storage device has a volume that
has at least 30 MB available, is formatted as MS-DOS (FAT), and is named AXDEFI3X104.
Because the volume will be erased, make sure all important data on the volume is
backed up. For more information, see “Setting Up a Storage Device for AXD Tools
Installation” on page 12.
To perform these instructions, you’ll need the Admin Tools disc (version 10.5 or later)
included with the Xserve.
If you’re performing this task to install AXD EFI tools on an internal volume on the
Xserve, you’ll need administrator access to the Xserve. If you’re performing this task to
install AXD EFI tools on a portable storage device, you can use any computer that you
have administrator access to.
