+-----------------------+ | | | Drivers for UNIX | | | +-----------------------+ BEFORE INSTALLING THE DRIVERS OR MAKING ANY CHANGES; TURN OFF THE CACHE ON THE DC4030VL-2. FAILURE TO DO SO CAN RESULT IN INCOMPLETE INSTALLATION. ******** Install UNIX Driver ******** This driver is for AT&T UNIX SVR 4.0 and SCO UNIX 3.2.X. package. Please follow the steps below to install the UNIX driver: 1. If you are running SCO UNIX, and 1.1 If your diskette is inserted in diskette drive A:, please type the following commands to copy the installation shell script from diskette to hard disk. # cd /tmp # doscp a:/unix/ptiinst . # sh ./ptiinst a: 1.2 If your diskette is inserted in diskette drive B:, please type the following commands to copy the installation shell script from diskette to hard disk. # cd /tmp # doscp b:/unix/ptiinst . # sh ./ptiinst b: 2. If you are running AT&T UNIX SVR 4.0, and 2.1 If your diskette is inserted in diskette drive A:, please type the following commands to copy the installation shell script from diskette to hard disk. # cd /tmp # doscp -m a:/unix/ptiinst . # sh ./ptiinst a: 2.2 If your diskette is inserted in diskette drive B:, please type the following commands to copy the installation shell script from diskette to hard disk. # cd /tmp # doscp -m b:/unix/ptiinst . # sh ./ptiinst b: 3. During installation, it will ask another blank diskette. Please insert that diskette as requested. 4. The system will ask you for the IRQ of the secondary hard disk controller by the following question: If you will install one Promise caching controller as the secondary hard disk controller, what is the IRQ of the secondary hard disk controller in this system (12 or 15)? (default=15) Please choose the appropriate one according to the jumper setting of that controller. 5. Done! if you are running AT&T UNIX SVR 4.0. 6. If you are running SCO UNIX, type the following commands after the driver is installed. # cd / # shutdown -y -g0 -i6 The commands will shutdown and reboot your system with the new kernel. NOTICE: 1.) Primary controller means the hard disk controller with IRQ 14, and secondary controller is the hard disk controller with IRQ 12 or 15. 2.) If you will install two Promise caching controller in the same system, please read the following: . After the machine has been powered on and the controller has checked its memory size, you can press the function key to enter the setup menu. Then, press to enter the Set-up Configuration submenu. Now you are ready to setup the BIOS starting address. . The BIOS starting address of each Promise controller must be different. For example, you can set one BIOS starting address to be dc000, and another to be c8000. ******** Add Secondary Hard Disks ******* If you have attached more than one hard disk to the cable, you must do the following things to make this hard disk "visible" to the system. 1. Please type the following command: # ptidiskadd 2. The command will ask you of the following three questions: Which controller will the hard disk be attached to? 1. the primary controller 2. the secondary controller Please choose answer(1 or 2)(default=1): Which cable (of this controller) will the hard disk be attached to? 1. the first cable 2. the second cable Please choose the answer(1 or 2)(default=1): Will the hard disk be the master(single) or slave drive on this cable? 1. the master or single hard disk 2. the slave hard disk Please choose the answer(1 or 2)(default=2): Please answer the questions according to your setting. 4. The other steps are very similar to the procedures about "Adding secondary hard disks" presented in the System Administor's Guide of SCO UNIX Operating System. Please refer to the System Administor's Guide for further reference. NOTICE: 1.) When using the ptidiskadd, you MUST set the Promise controller to "cache disabled". With "cache disabled", the system will be able to identify the bad sector of the hard disk. 2.) This utility will not work until you install the Promise driver and reboot with the new kernel. 3.) With both primary and secondary Promise controller installed, you can add up to 8 hard disks. ******** Remove the Driver ******** If you want to remove the driver and recover to the original hard disk device driver, please type the following command after the prompt #: # removepkg Certain installed package name(s) will be displayed on the screen. Please choose "Promise Caching Controller Driver" The remove procedure will continue. If you are running the SCO UNIX, please type the following commands to shutdown and reboot your system: # cd / # shutdown -y -g0 -i6 +==========================================================================+ TRADEMARK ACKNOWLEDGMENTS +==========================================================================+ VESA and VL-BUS are registered trademark of the VIDEO ELECTRONICS STANDARDS ASSOCIATION.
