The above recommends setting both channels to RAID. I
know that I have not tried that. All failures to date have
been with channel 1 set to RAID and channel 2 set to SCSI.
I'll reset channel 2 to RAID the next time I'm on site on
this install.
Now, can anyone translate that defbootstr instruction above
for use on SCO 6.0?
Steve,
There is no direct translation of this. OpenServer 6 includes the
drivers for the Dell Perc RAID 4 and if the Perc controller is
properly configured it should just be picked up at ISL.

John,
What is "properly configured"? I can find no information at Dell or
SCO on the "proper" configuration. The mega driver says it works
with the perc4/Di but it has no "proper" configuration information
in the driver package description.
Steve,
By properly configured I mean that you have configured the disks
in the appropriate RAID configuration using the Dell Perc BIOS
prior to installing Openserver 6.
