IBM ValuePoint - Novell UNIXWare 1.1 fails to install from CD ROM

Applicable to: World-Wide

Symptom:
Novell UNIXWare 1.1 may fail to install from a SCSI CD-ROM drive in a PS/ValuePoint system.

Problem Isolation Aids:
The SCSI adapter card is set to an interrupt other than IRQ11. The install process causes a system hang condition after removing diskette No.3. The word 'Working' will continue to flash on the display.

Fix:
The UNIXWare software is written so that it only recognizes the SCSI adapter if it is set to IRQ11 during the installation process. Set the adapter to IRQ11 and continue the installation. The IRQ setting of the adapter may be changed after the installation process is complete.
