A. Building the SYMHISL Driver Update Diskette

To create a SYMHISL diskette for Solaris installations, copy the raw symitu.dd
image file onto a 1.44 Mbytes floppy diskette. This process is dependent upon the
operating system that you are using to create this diskette. See the instructions be-
low for UNIX System and DOS System Users.

For UNIX System Users:
Follow these steps to create the SYMHISL Driver Update diskette:

1. Insert a 3.5" diskette into the floppy diskette drive.
2. At the UNIX prompt, type:

#volcheck -v
#dd if=/<path>/symitu.dd of=/vol/dev/aliases/floppy0 bs=36k
#eject floppy

The <path> is where the dd image is located. On this CD-ROM, the dd image file is
located here:

/SDMS/DRIVERS/UNIXES/SOLARIS/SOLARIS/SYMITU.DD

For DOS System Users:
Under this section, DOS system users have two choices.

1. Use a utility that will copy the raw dd image onto a 1.44 Mbytes floppy dis-

kette. This dd image is located at:
\SDMS\DRIVERS\UNIXES\SOLARIS\SOLARIS\SYMITU.DD
RAWRITE3.COM, which is a public domain utility, is available on this CD-
ROM at this location: \SDMS\DRIVERS\UNIXES\RAWRITE3.COM
Instructions for using this utility are included in its accompanying RaWrite file
or as a Microsoft Word document located at:
\SDMS\DRIVERS\UNIXES\RAWRITE3.DOC

2. The other DOS alternative is to use the self-extracting image file that is lo-

cated at: \SDMS\DISKIMAG\SOLARIS.EXE

B. New System Installation

These instructions provide details to install the SDMS symhisl driver using the
SYMHISL Update diskette created above during installation of the operating sys-
tem using the SYM53C896 or SYM53C1010 controller. To use the driver on the
SYMHISL Driver Update diskette to install Solaris X86 (Intel Platform Edition) on
a machine, follow the next steps.
