You will need this information to respond to prompts during the installation. If you do not record this information before starting, you might have to stop the installation and start again from the beginning.
After installation, keep this checklist with your system log. (See ``Keeping a system log'' for more information.)
[ ] No
[ ] Yes, enter package names:

SCSI Host Adaptor: __________________________________
SCSI ID: __________________________________
SCSI LUN: 0
(always 0 for SCO-provided drivers)
SCSI BUS: __________________________________
If you use your primary drive, autodetection will probably fill in the correct entry. See the SCO Certified and Compatible Hardware web page for device names. See ``Adding SCSI host adapters and peripherals'' for SCSI configuration information.

Copy answers 4, 5, and 6 from your SCO OpenServer License. For Upgrade installations, you need the license keys for both the original and upgrade systems.

[ ] Fresh
[ ] Upgrade (if system is suitable)
An Upgrade preserves your existing filesystems, but may not provide all the new functionality that a Fresh installation offers. (Some systems cannot be upgraded.)
__________________________________
Must be unique, begin with a letter, and contain only lowercase letters and numbers (a maximum of 8 characters).
__________________________________
[ ] High (above C2)
[ ] Improved (C2)
[ ] Traditional
[ ] Low
Use High for systems with confidential information and many users, Improved for systems with users who share information, Traditional to maintain compatibility with existing UNIX systems, or Low for systems not widely or publically accessed. (See ``System security'').
Continent or geographic area: __________________________________
Time zone name: __________________________________
Daylight savings observed? [ ] Yes [ ] No

If you will be running a language product other than US English (for example, French or German), specify it here.
[ ] Standard system
[ ] Lightweight character terminal
[ ] Database services (add to either Standard or Lightweight)
Standard Enterprise installs all software except Microsoft LAN Manager Client and SCO Gateway, and Lightweight character terminal also leaves out the X11 server and clients, graphical administration tools, and the IPX/SPX runtime. Database services adds the suds driver for large database products.
[ ] Preserve (if available)
[ ] Use whole disk for UNIX
[ ] Customized layout
[ ] Interactive fdisk/divvy
Preserve maintains current partitions and divisions (some systems cannot be preserved). Use whole disk for UNIX configures default partitions and divisions. Customize lets you create and resize partitions and divisions. Interactive invokes fdisk(ADM) and divvy(ADM) for more precision.
DOS partition size (MB) __________________________________
Other partition size (MB) __________________________________
boot filesystem size (MB) __________________________________
swap space size (MB) __________________________________
(recommend 1.5 to 2 times RAM)
root filesystem size (MB) __________________________________
(new filesystem types no longer require small root filesystems)
Other filesystems size (MB) __________________________________
[ ] None
[ ] Thorough/destructive
[ ] Thorough/non-destructive
[ ] Quick/destructive
[ ] Quick/non-destructive
Thorough/destructive ensures the highest disk integrity, but takes longer. Less thorough choices increase the risk of installation failure due to bad spots on the disk. (See ``Scanning a disk for defects using badtrk'').
[ ] Preserve (if available)
[ ] Use whole disk for UNIX
[ ] Customized layout
[ ] Defer

To override the initial system profiles, you can install whole and partial components in any combination. (See ``Determining disk space requirements'' for disk space requirements.) After initial installation, you can add or remove software. (See ``Installing and managing software components'').

You do not need this information if you autodetect the network card or defer networking configuration. (If the address you want to use for your network card does not appear on the list of valid addresses, defer network configuration until after installation.) See your hardware documentation for more information.
__________________________________
Four decimal numbers separated by periods (for example, 10.0.118.1). If you do not already have an IP address, defer network configuration.
__________________________________
If you are not configuring a subnetwork, accept the default value.
__________________________________
Gateway address: __________________________________
Primary nameserver address: __________________________________
Secondary nameserver address: __________________________________
Enter the IP address of the gateway machine on your network to set the default route. For more information, see ``Default routes''.
Enter the IP addresses of the primary and secondary name servers. Entering a name server creates a default resolv.conf(SFF) file. For more information, see ``Configuring the Domain Name Service''.
These fields are optional. If no values are entered, /etc/tcp does not add a default route and resolv.conf is not created; you will not be able to connect to another system using TCP/IP until you have a default route or a routing daemon configured.

[ ] On [ ] Off
If you plan to use the graphical environment, leave the graphical login on. See ``Starting a Graphical Environment session''.
For a bus mouse, specify the interrupt. For a serial mouse, specify the COM1 port. If your serial mouse is connected to COM2, specify COM1 and then reconfigure your mouse after installation. (See ``Adding mice and bitpads''. Also consult your hardware documentation.)
[ ] MMDF
[ ] sendmail
The two Mail Transfer Agents (MTAs are MMDF (the default) and sendmail. Choose sendmail if you will use advanced features of the Internet Services, such as virtual domains, or if your systems currently use sendmail. Otherwise, choose MMDF. For more information on sendmail and the Internet Manager, see ``Configuring Internet Services''. For a detailed comparison of sendmail and MMDF, see the Mail and Messaging Guide.
