footnote 3 - 285 NVS PCI card may be used alone or with another card. See instructions at http://hp.com/support/linux_user_manual -> 'Multi-Monitor Configurations on HP Linux Workstations'.
footnote 5 - Mixed hard drives are not offered on the preload. Use SATA or SCSI, not both. We do offer mixed drives on the HPIKL (FreeDos) configuration.
footnote 6 - Hardware RAID is not supported on Linux Systems and this includes the Promise SATA Raid Card, Onboard SATA Chipset Raid, Adaptec 2120S SCSI Raid Card, LSI 20320 A-R
SCSI Card, Onboard SCSI Chipset Raid. The Linux kernel, with built-in software RAID, provides excellent functionality and performance. It is a good alternative to hardware-based RAID.
footnote 7 - The xw4300 can support up to 4 SATA drives, in order to support the 3rd and 4th SATA drive the customer will need the Optical Bay Conversion Kit for each drive.
footnote 8 - The ATI v5100 is not supported due to Vesa driver issues during install. Please refer to the Release Notes Chapter in http://www.hp.com/support/linux_user_manual for instructions on
how to install the ATI driver.
footnote 9 - Keyboard/Mouse interface must be either PS2 or USB; mixing is not supported
footnote 10 - For RHEL3 U5, download the ALSA Sound Support softpaq from http://www.hp.com/support/xw4300. For RHEL4, use the built in ALSA Sound Support.
