Preparing to Install the SCO OpenServer Driver

Note:

You can download the latest versions of the Fusion-MPT
SCO OpenServer driver from the LSI web site at

http://www.lsi.com

. Click the Downloads link and follow

the instructions on the screen to download the driver.

Driver files are labeled

sco103xx.z

,

sco103xx.dd

, etc. The

xx refers to the last two digits of the actual driver version
number. For example, files associated with

lsil

driver

version 1.03.04 are labeled

sco10304.z

,

sco10304.dd

.

To connect SCSI devices to one or more host adapters, you must place
the proper host adapter driver in the SCO UNIX kernel. The

lsil

Boot

Time Loadable Driver (BTLD) diskette contains the driver for SCO
OpenServer 5.

You must link-edit the proper driver into the SCO UNIX kernel. The kernel
must reside on the boot drive: either an internal, non-SCSI hard drive or
a SCSI hard drive attached to host adapter 0 with SCSI ID 0 and LUN
0. The BTLD permits an easy installation of SCO UNIX with the software
provided by SCO.

SCO OpenServer 5 provides only one installation diskette, labeled Boot
Disk
. This diskette, the

lsil

BTLD driver diskette, and other software

media are used during an SCO OpenServer 5 installation.
