9.2 Adding the Driver to an Existing SCO UNIX System
with non-SCSI boot drive
1. Boot SCO UNIX into administration (single user) mode.
2. It is required to make a backup copy of the working UNIX kernel in case a hazardous
condition should arise. Use the following command to make the copy diskette first:
cp /unix /unix.ok
3. Insert the BTLD driver diskette into the floppy drive and start the installation by typing:
installpkg
4. The screen will then show the driver package description:
NAME DESCRIPTION
t3x5 Tekram DC3XX series PCI SCSI Host Adapter (VX.X)
5. Type the following command to install the driver:
t3x5
If system prompts to replace original driver,press <return> to confirm.
6. A series of messages will be displayed. The procedure is completed.
7. If any SCSI device is to be added (it is NOT necessary to have the hardware actually
connected !!), now is the time to do it. Refer to the SCO Unix/OpenServer
administrator’s manual for how to add SCSI devices to the system.
Note: It is important that when you are asked to input the driver prefix, enter tps in
response, and proceed as normal. Or, you can manually edit the SCSI device
configuration file /etc/conf/cf.d/mscsi.
8. After the devices are added, rebuild the kernel as instructed. If you do not plan to add
any devices, in order to rebuild the kernel, type the following commands:
cd /etc/conf/cf.d
./link_unix
9. Reboot the system for the changes to take effect.
