Hello Martin,


Thanks for the reply..
I checked in the installation documentatoin for Linux . In that for installation we need to have NUD Diskette from the location http://www.hp.com/cposupport/nonjsnav/netsrvrl.html
But I couldn't find any NOS Update Diskette for Downloads. Any Idea from where I can get it.

Thanks
Bindumadhav.
