Installing the Mylex Disk Array Controller as the
Primary Controller
This section provides guidelines for the system administrator to follow
during the installation of SCO UNIX to prepare it for using the Mylex Disk
Array Controller (DAC) as the primary controller. The following guidelines
will focus mainly on the important steps for installing the SCO UNIX
drivers. For detailed information about the operating system installation,
consult the SCO UNIX documentation.
If a tape drive connected to the controller is being used for installation, make
sure that the tape drive is set to SCSI ID 2, that the configuration utility has
been run with the tape drive installed, and that the configuration has been
saved. The same is also true when using a CD-ROM, except the CD-ROM
needs to be set to SCSI ID 5.
Prepare the system to receive the SCO OpenServer 5.0.x driver by
performing the following procedure:
1. Insert the
OpenServer Boot Disk
into the primary floppy and boot the
system. The following prompt will be displayed:
Boot
:
2. Type
ahslink
at the colon(:) and press
<Enter>
.
:
ahslink
↵
When running SCO 5.0.x on a system with an additional SCSI
controller, to install the controller at the boot prompt, enter:
Boot:
defbootstr ahslink=mdac Sdsk=mdac(0,0,0,1)
If installing onto a system that is SISL capable and using a SISL
capable DAC, it is recommended to disable the SCSI chip driver on the
system by entering the following at the boot prompt:
Boot:
defbootstr ahslink=mdac Sdsk=mdac(0,0,0,1)
disable=[scsi chip driver name]
3. The system will display the following message
What packages do you need linked in the system,
or q to quit?:
