Installing SCO UNIX on an HP Netserver
to edit the “mscsi” file, relink the kernel, and reboot.
OpenServer 5.0.4 requires a new N0 boot diskette from patch OSS463A. At
the “Boot” prompt type:
restart Sdsk=alad(1,0,0,0) Srom=alad(0,0,5,0)
D. For the HP NetServer E 30, E 40, E 45, E 50, E 60, LC II, LC 3 or LH 3
(where an IDE/ATAPI CD-ROM is used) type:
For OpenServer 5.0.0 and 5.0.2 use SCO SLS OSS451B (or later) to get the
wd driver:
restart link=wd Sdsk=alad(0,0,0,0) Srom=wd(1,0,0,0)
For OpenServer 5.0.4 the built in wd driver will find the IDE/ATAPI CD-
ROM. There is a problem in 5.0.4 where the CD-ROM will always be listed
as the slave device on the primary IDE controller. For the HP NetServer E 30,
E 40, E 45 and E 50 the CD-ROM is the master device on the secondary IDE
controller. For the HP NetServer LC II, LC 3 the CD-ROM is the master
device on the primary IDE controller.
E. If you have your system (root) disk is on the HP Disk Array Controller, you
must load the mdac driver; type:
restart link=mdac Sdsk=mdac(0,0,0,1)
Srom=alad(0,0,5,0)
for the NetServer E 30, E 40, E 45, E 50, LC II, LC 3 or LH 3 running
OpenServer 5.0.0 or 5.0.2 type:
restart link=“mdac wd” Sdsk=mdac(0,0,0,1)
Srom=wd(1,0,0,0)
for the NetServer E 30, E 40, E 45, E 50, LC II, LC 3 or LH 3 running
OpenServer 5.0.4 type:
restart link=mdac Sdsk=mdac(0,0,0,1)
Srom=wd(1,0,0,0)
When loading the mdac driver, you must replace the old mdac driver by
entering r.
F. If you have your system (root) disk is on the HP NetRAID controller, you
must load the amird driver; type:
restart link=amird Sdsk=amird(0,0,0,0)
