chip.
Cambex HBA Driver installation
Install the driver by mounting the cdrom
(something like: mount –rv cdrfs /dev/cd0)
Change to the directory containing the driver and run the following command.
installp –acd PC1000.image all
The output text should show that the driver installed successfully.
Verifying HBAs are found
Run cfgmgr after driver and HBA installation to detect and configure the HBAs.
