Note: Irix 5.3 and later will detect the changes made and automatically rebuild the kernel the next time the system boots.

Irix V6.x through V6.5

To configure Irix 6.x-6.5 to use a Scorpion 240, you must modify the files /var/sysgen/master.d/scsi and /dev/MAKEDEV.d/TPS_base, as described below. After modifying these files you must rebuild the kernel.

1.Edit the file /var/sysgen/master.d/scsi and add one of the following entries, depending on your version of IRIX:
