Installing Solaris 8 Using the Mylex MDAC Supplemental
Driver Diskette for a Secondary Installation
Before you begin to add or update your drivers, check that your newly
supported hardware devices are installed and configured according to the
instructions in the corresponding Device Reference Page, if any. See Device
Reference Manual for Solaris (Intel Platform Edition).
☛
Note
For a quick driver update process, see “Quick Driver
Update Instructions for a Secondary Installation” at
the end of this chapter.
These instructions assume that you are working with an x86 system using
either the Mylex MDAC driver.
☛
Note
When the Solaris Intel Platform Edition software is
already installed, the simplest way to add new or
updated drivers is to install the supplemental driver
diskettes as patches on your system.
Follow the steps below for a secondary (existing) installation.
1. Insert the Mylex supplemental diskette into the floppy drive.
2. Access the root directory. At the # prompt, type
cd /
3. Type the following command to see if the Volume Management
software is running on the computer you are updating:
ps -ef | grep vold
You will then see a process screen. On the right side of the screen,
notice the string
/usr/sbin/vold
to see if the Volume Management is running.
