Overview

The

INI-9090U

SCO UnixWare device driver will support UnixWare 2.x. The device driver is

transferred from the floppy diskette to the hard drive where it is loaded during system

initialization.
The installation of Initio device drivers to support SCO UnixWare may be found on the

INI-

9XXXU/9XXXUW DRIVER DISK 2

.

Installation

The SCO UnixWare drivers developed by Initio will be installed on the disk drive used for

system initialization. It is strongly suggested that the selected procedure be read and

understood before continuing with the system configuration or change. Please read the

instructions carefully.

Updating interrupts and hardware settings

The following interrupt configuration settings are suggested as the most effective means of

providing a controller interrupt to the host adapter:

• Host adapter interrupt level must be set to IRQ 10 for proper installation of the Initio

driver.

Please refer to your system documentation to set the interrupt levels and your peripheral

documentation for help in setting SCSI IDs.

Installing the Initio driver in a new UnixWare system

Drivers for the host adapter may be found on the

INI-9XXXU/9XXXUW DRIVER DISK 2

. In

most cases you will load the drivers during a new installation of UnixWare from CD-ROM.

The driver is loaded during the early stages of the installation procedure. The UnixWare

installation program will prompt you for the required parameters as the installation proce-

dure progresses. It is highly recommended that you have a copy of the SCO UnixWare

Installation Handbook and SCO UnixWare System Owner Handbook for reference.

1 Insert the “SCO UNIXWARE INSTALLATION DISKETTE” into the floppy drive and turn

on the computer. Follow the on-screen installation instructions.
