Installing the Device Drivers s UnixWare ! Caution: Owing to limitations in UnixWare that prevent UnixWare from seeing the sub-vendor and sub-system IDs of PCI boards, in some cases the hpnraid driver may be mapped to the wrong device, mapped to a non-existent device, or a driver other than the hpnraid driver may be mapped to the board. The correct subsystem device ID for the HP NetRAID-4M is 10C2, and the correct subsystem vendor ID is 103C. SCO has published a workaround for this problem on their website, www.sco.com.

Installing the Device Drivers
UnixWare
Caution:
Owing to limitations in UnixWare that prevent
UnixWare from seeing the sub-vendor and sub-system IDs
of PCI boards, in some cases the
hpnraid
driver
may be
mapped to the wrong device, mapped to a non-existent
device, or a driver other than the
hpnraid
driver may be
mapped to the board.
The correct subsystem device ID for the HP NetRAID-4M is
10C2, and the correct subsystem vendor ID is 103C.
SCO has published a workaround for this problem on their
website,
www.sco.com
.
We suggest that you apply this workaround when installing
the
hpnraid
driver on UnixWare.
a
During the installation, when prompted for additional
drivers, insert the diskette you created that contains the
SCO UnixWare 7.x Boot NetRAID-4M
driver into your
system
s diskette drive.
b
Continue the installation of the operating system.
Installing the UNIX Drivers on a Data Container
To install UNIX drivers to a data container, follow these steps:
1
Log on as
root
or become superuser.
2
Check to see if the
hpnraid
driver already exists on your
system, and if it does, remove it.
