1. Download the DCA disk from the sun sight.
http://soldc.sun.com/support/drivers/dca_diskettes/
Don't use the FCS version, I don't know what it is. Use the updated DCA from Solaris' web site because it may contain fixes for the install.
(Step 1 is recommended, however I didn't use it - I used the Solaris Software disk 1 of 2 as my DCA and it worked fine...)
2. Download the DU disks from the Compaq website.
The softpaq number is sp14289.exe and is accessible at the ftp site. The direct link to that softpaq is ftp://ftp.compaq.com/pub/softpaq/sp14001-14500/sp14289.exe
(These drivers ARE NECESSARY TWICE DURING THE INSTALL once at the beginning and again after the disk 1 of 2 is finished...)
3.Have the Solaris disks available.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Using Smart Start, erase the system, set up your array if installed and select "other " for an operating system.
1. Boot Solaris with Configuration Assistant Diskette or with
Solaris 8
Software/WebStart CD.
I used Solaris Software disk 1 of 2
2. When the Configuration Assistant screen is displayed, choose the
F4
option (F4_Add Driver)
3. When the 'Install Supplemental Drivers' screen is
displayed,
remove the Configuration Assistant diskette (if it is used
to
Boot Solaris) and insert the CPQary8.220 Driver Update diskette.
4.
Press F2_Continue.
5. At this stage, the smartii driver is loaded from
the diskette
into the memory.
6. You can also add other drivers through
the corresponding DU
diskettes at this stage. Once all the required drivers
are added
remove the DU diskette from the diskette drive and reinsert
the
Configuration Assistant diskette (if it is used to Boot Solaris)
and
press F4_Done.
I loaded all 4 disks and drivers
7. The Identified Device Drivers screen is displayed.
8. Press
F2_Continue. Continue with the installation process of
Solaris Operating
System.
Make sure you select the GUI install and do the test to verify your video settings!!
9. At the end, the installation program prompts you to insert
the
CPQary8.220 DU diskette again.
10. Reinsert the CPQary8.220 DU
diskette.
11. Press Enter to continue.
12. Following is displayed while
successfully installing the CPQary
package.
