SCO UNIX is the first UNIX operating system licensed for
IBM-compatible microcomputers. The integrated communications,
file system, international application support, and documentation
create an ideal platform for those requiring a full-featured,
UNIX-based operating system. SCO UNIX takes full advantage of
the capabilities of the 80386 and above microprocessors.
SCO UNIX 3.2v4x provides Basic Utilities and Extended Utilities,
as well as their Development System packages. These items, plus
the installation software, are provided on diskettes (also available
on tape or CD). SCO has labeled these diskettes: N(1-2) and M1
for Installation, B(1-3) for Basic Utilities, and X(1-7) for Extended
Utilities.
The NCR SDMS 3.0 SCSI device drivers are linked into the UNIX
kernel. The rebuilt kernel must reside on the boot drive: either an
internal, non-SCSI hard drive (IDE, ESDI, or ST506) or a SCSI
hard drive. SDMS facilitates this by providing a Boot Time
Loadable Driver (BTLD) and the CAM3 SCSI configuration tool.
The BTLD permits an easy installation of UNIX onto a SCSI hard
disk with the software provided by SCO. The CAM3 SCSI
configuration tool simplifies loading the SCSI device drivers into
the operating system.
The following sections provide instruction on configuring the SCO
UNIX kernel with the SCSI device drivers, adding SCSI peripheral
devices, and installing SCO UNIX onto a SCSI hard drive. These
instructions assume you are familiar with UNIX system adminis-
tration.
