4-56 Installing the Operating System

24.Log into "Root" and from the "Unix" window issue the following: "mount -f/dev/fd0/mnt."

"cp/mnt/idscsi/etc/conf/bin"

This concludes the installation of SCO OpenServer 5.0.6. You need to open the diskette drive and reboot the SCO OpenServer 5.0.6 operating system from the system drive you just installed.

Note: During the installation of SCO or any time thereafter when booting SCO a warning message may appear as follows:

WARNING: Cannot connect to APM, error 0x0036 System loaded, press <Return> to start:

To prevent the WARNING message from appearing, boot the system to single-user Mode. Edit the /etc/default/boot file. Add "apm.check=no" to the end of the line indicated by the "DEFBOOTSTR=" entry.

It is recommended that any additional software packages be installed at this time. After all additional software is installed; it is recommended that Maintenance Supplement 505A be installed on your system.

Note: Do not change the system drive 0 (boot drive) cache policy to write-back until after the installation completes.

Installation of Tape Drives

After the installation of SCO OpenServer 5.0.6 is complete, ensure the tape device is configured to the proper controller. If reconfiguring is necessary, follow the instructions in the hardware section of the SCO OpenServer Rel. 5.0.6 Handbook.

Installation of CD-ROM Drives

Ensure that the CD-ROM device is connected to the proper controller. If reconfiguring is necessary, follow the instructions in the hardware section of the SCO OpenServer Rel. 5.0.6 Handbook.

Adding System Drives

After installing SCO OpenServer on system drive 0 (root drive), it may be necessary to create additional file systems on any other system drives. Use the command "mkdev hd" to partition and create file systems on additional system drives.
