B. New System Installation

This procedure installs SCO UNIX onto a hard disk drive. This installation is necessary to build a new UNIX kernel that includes your SDMS driver. During installation, you are given the option of retaining current partitions on the root hard disk. For instance, you could have a DOS partition or a user UNIX partition already established on the drive. For more details on UNIX installation, refer to the SCO OpenServer Handbook.

1.Link the lsil BTLD into the UNIX kernel during installation.

2.Insert the SCO UNIX installation diskette and reboot the system. For SCO OpenServer 5.0.6a, this diskette is labeled Boot Disk.

3.At the boot prompt, typeBoot: linkPress Enter.4.At the next prompt, type:lsilDo not remove the boot diskette. Press Enter.

5.When prompted during the installation, insert either the proper installation diskette or the SDMS BTLD diskette, and press Enter.

The system may prompt you to enter a routine number:

“Please enter which routine (0-40) to replace ‘?’ to list, ‘a’ to add “lsilinit” at the end [default], ‘n’ to do nothing, or ‘q’ to quit”

Enter the indicated routine number that precedes this message. Then the system may prompt with another inquiry:

“Please enter which routine (0-2) to replace ‘?’ to list, ‘a’ to add “lsilpoll” at the end [default], ‘n’ to do nothing, or ‘q’ to quit”

Enter the indicated routine number that precedes this message.6.Continue the installation according to the SCO UNIX documentation.

7.The SCO OpenServer 5.0.6a system automatically creates a file, unix.safe, during installation. To access this UNIX kernel, type after the “boot:” prompt:

unix.safe

2.Install SCSI device support by continuing from “C. Existing System Installation,” Step 3.
