SCO OpenServer and SCO UnixWare
Device Drivers from Compaq
Your server must have certain device drivers to operate under the SCO
OpenServer and SCO UnixWare 2 operating systems. These drivers are
located on the Compaq SmartStart CD. There are three methods to install the
SCO operating system onto your server:
An integrated SmartStart installation is available to assist you with
installation of your server by automatically creating the Compaq
System Partition with tools to help configure and diagnose your server.
The SmartStart CD also includes all the SCO UNIX device drivers for
your system.
Alternatively, by booting the SmartStart and Support Software CD and
choosing a manual installation path, you can use the SCO UNIX from
Compaq CDs to install you SCO software. This will also automatically
install all the drivers your server needs while presenting the more
familiar SCO interview process instead of the SmartStart interview
process. It will also automatically create the Compaq System Partition
with tools to help configure and diagnose your server.
To install SCO UNIX using software from SCO you will need to create
the Boot Time Loadable Drivers (BTLDs) and the UNIX drivers from
the Compaq Enhanced Functionality Supplement (EFS). These can be
downloaded onto floppies with tools available on the SmartStart and
Support Software CD. To create these floppies, boot the SmartStart and
Support Software CD and follow the instructions to create
Supplemental Support Software diskettes. One of the diskettes on the
Compaq EFS contains a bootable documentation diskette. Before
attempting to install the SCO UNIX software, boot this diskette and
read the README file for the Compaq EFS. It will instruct you on
how to use the boot time loadable driver diskettes along with the SCO
installation media.
