USB diskette and CD-ROM drives
For driver installation purposes, a USB diskette drive and USB CD-ROM drive
are sufficient.
NOTE: Do not use a USB drive key in place of the diskette drive.
The OS does not support driver installation from a USB drive key.
HP provides both standard USB support and legacy USB support. Standard
support is provided by the OS through the appropriate USB device drivers.
Before the OS loads, HP provides support for USB devices through legacy USB
support, which is enabled by default in the system ROM. HP hardware supports
USB version 1.1 or 2.0, depending on the version of the hardware.
Legacy USB support provides USB functionality in environments where USB
support is normally not available. Specifically, HP provides legacy USB
functionality for:
• POST
• RBSU
• Diagnostics
• DOS
• Operating environments which do not provide native USB support
