Joe,

Since the SPLAT install does not recognize the SATA drives I am unable to 
get SPLAT installed. The options have disk during the initial install 
requires a floppy drive which the server does NOT have. This problem is 
encountered during the install phase. Any ideas ?

How about using ftp or scp to get the files off some server?  I sometimes 
use a laptop placed on the same network as the firewall to download files 
to my SPLATs or Nokias, which have no floppy or CD drive and no USB 
port.  If you see my previous post, I spelled out instructions on how to 
mount a USB drive in SPLAT.

HTH....
