Linux Installation and Configuration Guide for AlphaServer 26

Red Hat Version 6.1 Distribution

Pre-Installation

Firmware Inspection and Upgrade

After powering up your AlphaServer or AlphaStation computer, type the command "show

version". Check that the version string printed is "V5.4-2 May 19 1999 14:25:16" or newer, and

that the first letter of the version string is a "V". If this is not the case, you should upgrade your

firmware. Instructions on how to do this can be found at

http://ftp.digital.com/pub/Digital/Alpha/firmware/ along with the latest firmware images.

System Resource Manager Configuration

There are several pieces of information that you need to configure in the SRM subsystem, as well

as device identifiers that you should make note of, prior to beginning the installation process. The

steps that follow take you through that process.

1. Power up your system. After several diagnostics are completed, you will be presented an

SRM prompt "P00>>>", as shown here:

256 Meg of system memory

probing hose 1, PCI

bus 0, slot 9 -- ewa -- DE500-AA Network Controller

probing hose 0, PCI

probing PCI-to-ISA bridge, bus 1

bus 0, slot 5, function 1 -- dqa -- Cypress 82C693 IDE

bus 0, slot 5, function 2 -- dqb -- Cypress 82C693 IDE

bus 0, slot 6, function 0 -- pka -- Adaptec AIC-7895

bus 0, slot 6, function 1 -- pkb -- Adaptec AIC-7895

bus 0, slot 7 -- vga -- ELSA GLoria Synergy

P00>>>

2. Determine what devices your system has installed. In particular you will need to note your

installation device (a floppy and/or CD-ROM), and your target disk drive. Entering the

command "show devices" as shown below will print out the information about your system:

P00>>>show device

dka0.0.0.6.0 DKA0 COMPAQ BA03611C9B 3B05

dka100.1.0.6.0 DKA100 COMPAQ BB01811C9C 3B05

dka200.2.0.6.0 DKA200 COMPAQ BB01811C9C 3B05

dqa0.0.0.105.0 DQA0 CD-224E 9.5B

dva0.0.0.0.0 DVA0

ewa0.0.0.9.1 EWA0 00-00-F8-01-F5-DA

pka0.7.0.6.0 PKA0 SCSI Bus ID 7

pkb0.7.0.106.0 PKB0 SCSI Bus ID 7

In the output above, the first line shows that DKA0 is a hard disk, DQA0 is a CD-ROM, and

DVA0 is a floppy drive.

Also useful for inspecting the computer configuration is the "show config" command, as

shown here:

P00>>>show config | more
