If the floppy driver is not configured, ioscan returns the following message: ioscan: Device driver scsifloppy is not in the kernel If you receive this message, go the the section, "Configuring the Floppy Driver" later in this chapter for information on adding the scsifloppy driver to the HP-UX kernel configuration. Using Device Files Device files are special files that tell your system which pathway to use through the system hardware when communicating with a specific device and what kind of device it is. The examples in this chapter assume that the SCSI ID of your floppy drive is set to the factory default of SCSI ID 0, using the device file /dev/rfloppy/c201d0s0. (The underlined 0 indicates the SCSI ID number.) NOTICE: The device file name used in these examples is appropriate only for systems running HP-UX 9.05. If you are using HP-UX 10.0 or later, the device file names will depend on the naming conventions of your particular system. See "SCSI ID and Device File Information for HPUX 10.0 or Later" in Chapter 1 of this book. If you set the SCSI address of your floppy drive to a value other than 0, you must create a device file for it, then substitute the pathname of your device file in the examples that follow. Refer to the System Administration Tasks manual for information on how to create a device file. 5-7
