UnixWare 7.1.4 New Features and Notes -- Addendum *May 2006* This document describes the changes made to the UnixWare 7.1.4 Revised Media Kit in May 2006: * All Host Bus Adapters on CD #1 have been updated to the latest versions as of May 2006.. * The *nd* and *nics* networking packages on CD #1 have been updated to the versions (8.0.2c) provided with Maintenance Pack 3. * The Maintenance Pack 3 Set (*uw714mp3*) and *ptf9052c* are applied automatically during installation of CD #1. After installing CD #1 and CD #2, please then install the complete latest Maintenance Pack. See the *Upgrading to the Latest UnixWare 7.1.4 Maintenance Pack <#pack>* section below for details. *Installation instructions* for UnixWare 7.1.4 fresh and upgrade installations are in the /Getting Started Guide/. A printed copy of the /Getting Started Guide/ is included with the Media Kit; HTML versions in English, French, German, Japanese, and Spanish are available on Base Operating System CD #1 under //info/gsg/ and in the online documentation at http://uw714doc.sco.com/en/RNOTES/getstartTOC.html. The /Getting Started Guide/ also includes a list of all software included on the Media Kit CD-ROMs, licensing and installation defaults, installation prerequisites, and other useful information. Automatic Installation of UnixWare 7.1.4 Maintenance Pack 3 Set and ptf9052c The UnixWare 7.1.4 CD #1 automatically installs the Maintenance Pack 3 Set (uw714mp3) on the system. CD #1 also contains *ptf9052c*, and this is automatically installed after the Maintenance Pack. *NOTE:* If you install any packages from CD #2 or CD #3, or add any other additional packages after installation, you will need to reinstall Maintenance Pack 3 and then reapply ptf9052c from CD #1. To reapply ptf9052c, insert CD #1, and then issue these commands: mount /dev/cdrom/cdrom1 /mnt pkgadd -d /mnt/upd.additions/ptf9052 ptf9052 umount /mnt Also see the section Installation: eels Causes Maintenance Pack Reinstall Message <#eelswarn>, below. Upgrading to the Latest UnixWare 7.1.4 Maintenance Pack To complete your system installation, after installing CD #1 and CD #2 you should install the entire latest UnixWare 7.1.4 Maintenance Pack. Please note that CD #1 was revised in May 2006 to include the Maintenance Pack 3 set (*uw714mp3*). When you install your system there may be a later Maintenance Pack available. If so, the Maintenance CD in the new media kits will provide that Maintenance Pack. Or you can download the latest Maintenance Pack from http://www.sco.com/support/update/download/product.php?pfid=1&prid=6. Either way, please install the latest Maintenance Pack. As noted above, to enable installation on some newer hardware since the original UnixWare 7.1.4 release, CD #1 now includes, and automatically installs, the *uw714mp3* set that is part of UnixWare 7.1.4 Maintenance Pack 3. However, separately installable packages included on the Maintenance CD are /not/ automatically installed by CD #1, and must be separately installed from the latest Maintenance CD. For more information about the latest Maintenance Pack, see the /Release Notes/ provided on the Maintenance CD or at http://www.sco.com/support/update/download/product.php?pfid=1&prid=6. Loading HBAs from CD #1 The table below lists all the HBA drivers supplied on CD #1, both on the original 7.1.4 Media Kit CDs and the Revised May 2006 CDs. The UnixWare Host Bus Adapter (HBA) drivers marked with an asterisk (*) in the table below are available from the bootable CD image. If other HBAs are needed during installation, they can be loaded from CD #1. See the installation procedure in the /Getting Started Guide/.

Installation: eels Causes Maintenance Pack Reinstall Message Because the uw714mp3 set is installed automatically when you install CD #1, selecting eels (Enhanced Event Logging System) from CD #2 results in a warning message to reinstall the latest Maintenance Pack. See the /Release Notes/ on the Maintenance Pack CD, or on the *UnixWare 7.1.4 Support Download Web Site* at: http://www.sco.com/support/update/download/product.php?pfid=1&prid=6 for how to install the latest Maintenance Pack. Fixes: Installation Problems Fixed in the UnixWare 7.1.4 Revised Media Kit 1. ISL displays misleading disk geometry -- If a system has a storage device that's recognized on boot but contains invalid fdisk partitions, the installation will display gibberish geometry, confusing valid partsizes with invalid partsizes and can easily lead a user into installing to the "wrong" drive. (ID: 531475:1) 2. Cannot load HBA floppy via USB floppy drive during ISL -- Attempting to load an HBA floppy via a USB floppy drive during ISL always results in the HBA drivers being read from the installation cdrom instead (which is enabled as an HBA cdrom.) (ID: 531491:1) Notice: No MCA-based HBA Support MCA-based HBA drivers are no longer supported in UnixWare 7.1.4. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ /© Copyright 2006 The SCO Group, Inc.
