Booting from the Embedded SCSI Controller The system boots from the drive with the lowest SCSI address (0--zero) on the embedded SCSI host bus adapter.

Booting from the Embedded SCSI Controller
The system boots from the drive with the lowest SCSI address (0--zero) on the embedded
SCSI host bus adapter.
On the NetServer LD, LH and LS disk arrays, the upper middle
drive slot has SCSI ID 0.
On the NetServer LX, check the SCSI configuration label to
see how your disk slots are numbered.
If you place the boot drive in another slot, your
system may not boot.
On the HP NetServer E 30, E 40, E 45, E 50, and E 60 you need to
use jumpers on the disk drives to set their SCSI addresses.
Drivers for HP Network Cards Available on HP NetServer CD-ROM
Some NetServer models come with a bundled network interface card (NIC).
The SCO
3.0 and 5.0 drivers for the HP network cards are available by using the "Diskette Library"
feature in the "NetServer Utilities" section of the HP NetServer Navigator CD-ROM.
Make sure you select the NIC driver that matches your NIC model number and NOS
version.
Once the NIC driver diskette is created, you can load the NIC driver onto your
system using the "custom" command.
After the driver is loaded you must run "netconfig"
to configure the card into the UNIX kernel.

NIC
When configuring the HP J3171A or D5013A NIC using SCO³s "netconfig" utility you
must manually set the adapter for the network speed.
The auto detection feature of the
driver does not currently work.
Follow these steps to set the speed:
1.
Run netconfig
2.
Select the networking product that you need to configure
"HP DESKDIRECT 10/100 TX LAN ADAPTER"
3.
Select "Hardware"
4.
Select "Modify hardware configuration"
5.
Select "Advanced options"
6.
Select the "Media Speed"
Do not select "AUTO", you must choose either 10 or 100.
7.
Choose "Continue", followed by another "Continue"
8.
Exit netconfig
