This topic is available in English only
the host bus adapter chipset
First, you need to determine which adaptor your tape is going to be installed upon.
Secondly, determine which adaptor your disks are installed upon. If you are
running a SCSI system and wish to install SCO, you have to have the root disk on
SCSI ID 0.
The host bus adaptor chipset determines which drivers are used to talk to SCSI
peripherals, as shown in the following table:
Adaptec 78xx chipset alad driver
Adaptec 77xx chipset arad driver
Symbios 53cxx chipset slha driver
the symbios logic host adaptor
Note that in order to install onto a Symbios adaptor you will need to install the
symha driver package. This is referred to in this document as the slha (Symbios
Logic Host Adaptor) driver.
