BTLD Tips The HP NetServers use the BTLD for the internal SCSI controllers. The BTLD is a driver that can be link-edited into the UNIX system kernel during the booting process. The link-editing is done by boot (HW) after the driver is loaded into memory, but before the kernel is started. The HP NetServer Manager CD creates a diskette containing the SCO UNIX BTLDs. For the UNIX 3.2v4.2 and 3.0 products, you need an HP disk controller driver diskette that is created by the HP NetServer Navigator CD. This diskette contains the alad, arad, amird, and mdac drivers. For OpenServer 5.0.x, the SCSI controller drivers are built into the SCO product. HP recommends that you use the latest arad and alad drivers that SCO ships. These drivers are available from SCO on their AHS 5.2.0 (or later) BTLD disk. HP only ships the drivers for the HP Disk Array Controller (mdac), the HP NetRAID Controller (amird), the Adaptec alad driver (use alad325 on the link line), the Adaptec blad driver for SCSI Ultra 2 (use blad325 on the link line) and the Symbios slha driver (use symha on the link line), but not the Adaptec arad driver, on the driver diskettes that are created by the HP NetServer Navigator CD. Driver Names for HP-Supplied Controllers The following table lists the names of required drivers for the HP-supplied controllers.
