Dear SCO Customer,
        
The enclosed Support Level Supplement (SLS) PTF7014A, the DDI8 CD-ROM
Supplement, resolves problems with CD-ROM certification on systems 
using DDI8 HBA drivers.  Please read this document completely before 
attempting to install the new software.

PTF7014A contains modifications to the Base System (base) package of 
UnixWare 7.  If you are preparing to install this package, discontinue 
the installation of PTF7014A, install the base package first, and then 
install PTF7014A.

Please note that this package is affected by this supplement.  If you
later install the base package on your system, you must reinstall this 
SLS to get the fixes for that package.
        

Software Notes and Recommendations
----------------------------------
        
SLS PTF7014A should only be installed on the following release:
        
    UnixWare 7 with UnixWare 7 Release Supplement (uw7rs) applied.
        
To find out what release your system is running, use the command:
        
    # uname -sv
        
The command will return "UnixWare 7" if this release is installed.
        
To find if the SCO UnixWare 7 Release Supplement is installed,
run the command:
         
    # pkginfo | grep uw7rs
         
If the Release Supplement is installed this command will return 
"patch uw7rs uw7rs - SCO UnixWare 7 Release Supplement".
         
Testing of the modified software contained in this package has been
conducted only to the extent necessary to confirm that it resolves
the problem(s) stated above ("Symptoms").  Such testing consists of
re-creating the problem conditions (typically in an SCO test laboratory)
and verifying that the problem no longer occurs.  No other testing of
this software has been done.
