Unixware 7.1.1 Installation Pixabay
Hardware platform: IBM EServer XSeries 335 (1G MEM / 2 * 36.4 10K Scis HD / Xeon 2.4G * 2 / LSI1030 SCSI Card / Broadcom Giga Nic * 2)
Software Platform: SCO Unixware 7.1.1 DepartmentAl
1, do not install the installation disc or floppy disk! What is the use?
Use SCO UNIXWARE PTF7619D boot & patch floppy group, download URL:
ftp://ftp.sco.com/pub/unixware7/ptf7619d
2, make HBA disc. To the manufacturer of the SCSI card, LSI. Download UW10328.dd. The SCO will be DD below. (Rawrite3.com should also be)
3. At this time, the driver of the NIC is installed. But no matter what you mount is not on the floppy disk! You need to install the upgrade package UW711M3.Image. Download address: ftp://ftp.sco.com/pub/unixware7/uw711pk
So how to upgrade? Can only burn the disc!
If you upgrade directly to M3, the NIC driver can be installed. But the network card can't recognize!
How to do? Need to upgrade to M1, install the driver, then the network card can only recognize!
Then upgrade to M3, solve the problem that the CPU type cannot be recognized.
Worse operating system. Unixware 711 on IBM x335
There is also the patch to be hit: OSMP / MTOOLS / .....:
4, some TIPS:
1), check the status of the CPU:
Psrinfo -V
SAR -P ALL 1 3 should be able to return a result of multiple CPUs.
2) Pay attention to user management. It is best not to use UserAdd / Userdel. Use graphic Account Manager.
