5-40 Installing the Operating System with Express Setup
IMPORTANT:
Reserve the partition to install the OS more than the minimally
required size.
If you select "Use Existing Array" at "New/Existing RAID
Configuration", the information included in the first partition
(excluding maintenance partition) will all be formatted and deleted.
The information included in the other partition will be retained.
In the figure below, describes the partition which information will
be deleted when maintenance partition exists.

You can not re-install the system with the existing partition that is
upgraded to Dynamic Disk remained. Do not select "Use
Existing Array" at "New/Existing RAID Configuration".
If "Create New Partition" at "New/Existing RAID Configuration"
is selected, do not specify the value for the partition more than the
actual area size.
If you specify other than 4095MB for the "Installing Partition", it
is necessary to convert to NTFS.
If "Use Existing Array" at "New/Existing RAID Configuration" is
selected but the partition other than the one to install Windows
2000 does not exist (excluding maintenance partition), Express
Setup will reserve the maximum area of the hard disk drive to
install Windows 2000.
You can not go to the next screen if the specification is incorrect.
NOTES:
If you click [Cancel] in [Basic Information] screen, the screen will
go back to select the OS. [Cancel] exists only in [Basic
Information] screen.
If you click [OK] in [Role of Computer] screen, the setup
automatically selects default value for the later specification to
continue the installation.
