In order to see your DAT you have to load the BTLD of the HA the DAT is connected to. If it is connected to the Adaptec 39320 you would have to load the ad320 BTLD using the /etc/btldinstall command.
example (btld loaded onto floppy)
mount -r /dev/fd0135ds18 /mnt
/etc/btldinstall /mnt
then...
What type of SCSI adapter do you have? lsil, ad160, etc... When you reboot the server you should see the adapters firmware start up and it will show what devices you have connected to that particular adapter. I know the LSI Logic has a 39320 but not sure what you have. Also pay attention to...
This lsil btld does support a list of SAS HBA's. There are other btld's that support SATA for SCO 5.0.7. SCO's Knowledge Center at sco.com is a useful tool in finding compatible hardware and what btld's they require.
I went with the onboard NIC. It is a broadcom NetXtreme 5721 that uses the latest bcme driver (bcme_8.3.2). I didn't get an internal tape drive. I use an external and I have spare SCSI adapters sitting around so I used a LSI Logic Ultra 320 HBA (53C1020/1030) for the drive.
Not sure.
Have you tried this?
#mount /dev/hd0root <filesystem>
#chroot <filesystem> /bin/su root
That usually allows me to run root commands after I boot with EBD's. Not sure what the application is looking at to determine if you are superuser or not.
I loaded SCO Openserver 5.0.7 on a Dell PE 840 with the Dell SAS 5 HBA. The btld for that is the latest lsil, I believe it is version 1.03.28. The bootstring I used is:
boot:link <cr>
What package do you need linked to the system,
or press q to quit? lsil <cr>
You could also use something...
I have solved the problem above. Apparently when SCO Openserver 6.0 doesn't see the hard drive it displays the above error. For the Dell SAS 5 HBA SCO Openserver 5.0.7 uses the latest lsil BTLD. For SCO Openserver 6.0 you need the latest 6.0 version of mpt.
Thanks
I am trying to load SCO Openserver 6.0 on a new Dell Precision 390 and PowerEdge 840. I am getting this error on both during install:
Incorrect hard disk partitioning information has been detected on hard drive disk:0...
The install then aborts. I am getting the error after the portion of...
