ULTRA2 LVD SCSI HOST ADAPTER
5.9 Installing Drivers for SCO UnixWare
The SCO UnixWare device driver for your Ultra2 LVD SCSI Host Adapter will
support UnixWare 2.1x. The device driver is transferred from Driver Disk 2 to the
hard drive, from which it is loaded during system initialization.
The Adapter drivers for SCO UnixWare will be installed on the disk drive used
for system initialization. The drivers are loaded during the system boot routine and
will remain resident on the drive. This is accomplished by following one of the two
installation procedures listed in this section: new SCO UnixWare installation or
adding the device drivers to an existing SCO UnixWare system. (There are also
procedures listed for using multiple Adapters and for removing the driver.) These
procedures differ significantly from one another. We strongly suggest that you
carefully read the instructions for the procedure you plan to use and make sure
you understand them before proceeding with the corresponding system-
configuration changes. In addition, Driver Disk 2 contains a README.TXT file
that might contain important updated information about the procedures
described in this chapter; we recommend that you read it and use it when you
perform the driver installation.
The Adapter's interrupt-request level (IRQ) must be set to IRQ 10 for the driver
to install properly. Please refer to your system documentation to set the interrupt
levels and your peripheral documentation for help in setting SCSI IDs.
5.9.1 I
NSTALLING THE
SCO UnixWare drivers for the Ultra2 LVD SCSI Host Adapter are on Driver Disk 2.
In most cases you will load the drivers during a new installation of UnixWare from
CD-ROM. The driver is loaded during the early stages of the installation
procedure. The UnixWare installation program will prompt you for the required
parameters as the installation procedure progresses. We highly recommended that
you have copies of the SCO UnixWare Installation Handbook and SCO UnixWare
System Owner Handbook for reference.
1. Insert the SCO UnixWare Installation Diskette in the floppy drive and turn on
the computer. Follow the on-screen installation instructions.
2. When prompted to "Install Host Bus Adapter Drivers," insert Driver Disk 2 in
drive A: and press <ENTER>.
3. When prompted to "Install Another HBA Diskette," press <ENTER> to continue.
