SCO OpenServer 5.0 Driver
Installation

3.1
Introduction
This section provides instructions for installing the SCO device driver under the
following SCO OpenServer 5.0 operating system conditions:
❑ Initial installation of the SCO OpenServer 5.0 operating system and the
SCO device driver
❑ Installation of the SCO device driver in an existing SCO OpenServer 5.0
operating system
The SCO device driver uses the SCO boot-time loadable driver (BTLD) function
to install SCO OpenServer 5.0. BTLDs can be link edited into the UNIX system
kernel during the boot process. The link editing is done by boot (HW) after the
driver is loaded into RAM memory, but before the kernel is started.
The latest version of the SCO OpenServer 5.0 driver package is available on the
QLogic web site. The files in the driver package cannot be read nor installed from
a DOS environment. Be sure to review the installation and/or release notes for both
new and changed information.
If SCO OpenServer 5.0 is not installed on your system, perform the installation
procedures in section 3.2. If SCO OpenServer 5.0 is already installed, perform the
installation procedures in section 3.3.
The installation of host adapter boards and devices is covered in detail in the SCO
OpenServer 5.0 documentation. See the following topics for more information.
