For SCO OpenServer 5.0.0 patches:
SCO OpenServer 5.0.0 patches usually consist of two phases: "Loading" and
"Applying". The instructions that follow enable you to install the
patch from the media image downloaded from this site.
1. Request the file(s) and cover letter/documentation via your
favorite file transfer protocol. (Note: if transferring to a DOS
based machine you will need to transfer the files to a SCO
OpenServer 5.0.0 machine before proceeding to step 2)
2. Uncompress the media image(s), if necessary, by using the uncompress(C)
command.
3. Copy the media image to the /tmp directory and name it VOL.000.000.
NOTE: If there is more than one volume image, copy the first volume
to VOL.000.000, copy the second volume to VOL.001.000, and
so on until all volumes have been copied.
4. Execute the command:
scoadmin software
or double click on the Software Manager icon on the desktop
5. Pull down the "Software" menu and select "Patch Management-->Load Patch".
6. You will see the "Begin Load Patch" menu. Be sure the local machine
name is selected and choose "Continue".
7. You will see the "Select Media" menu.
8. Pull down the "Media Device" menu and select "Media Images", then
choose "Continue". You will then see the "Enter Image Directory"
menu. Enter /tmp and choose "OK".
9. You will see the "Load Patch Preference" menu. Choose "Full".
10. You will see the "Load Patch Progress" window. If the patch loads
successfully, you will see a "Message" window which states
"Load Patch complete". Choose "OK". You are then returned to the main
Software Manager window.
11. To apply the patch now continue on to step 2 under "Applying the PATCH".
APPLYING THE PATCH
1. Log in as root. Execute the command:
# scoadmin software
or double click on the Software Manager icon on the desktop.
2. Pull down the Software menu and select "Patch Management-->Apply Patch".
3. You will see the "Begin Apply Patch" menu. Be sure that the local
machine is selected and choose "Continue".
4. You will see the "Select Media" menu. The "Hard Disk" menu item
should already be selected. Choose "Continue".
5. You will be presented with the "Select Patch-product to Apply" menu.
6. Highlight the "Release Supplement" patch and the choose "Full" to
continue.
7. You will see the "Apply Patch Progress" window as the system applies
the patch.
8. You should then see a message that the patch has been applied successfully.
For all other Supplements:
The files ending in .Z have been reduced in size using the compress utility.
These files must first be unpacked using uncompress(C). Files ending
in .ltr or .doc are cover letters and installation instructions for
the corresponding supplements. The cover letters assume you have
received the supplements on diskette. To install a supplement, you
must first transfer it to a diskette using the following procedure:
1. Request the file and cover letter/documentation via your favorite
file transfer protocol. (Note: if transferring to a DOS based machine
you will need to transfer the files to a SCO UNIX machine before
proceeding to step 2)
2. Unpack the file as necessary using compress(C).
3. Use the dd(C) command to transfer the supplement file to the
diskette. For example, if the supplement file is "ms106"
and is in the /usr/spool/uucppublic directory on your system, and
the diskette is 3.5-inch, 720k, the command would be:
dd if=/usr/spool/uucppublic/ms106 of=/dev/fd0135ds9
Substitute the appropriate device name for "/dev/fd0135ds9" if
transferring to a diskette of another capacity. The diskette must
be formatted using the format(C) command before the data can be
transferred.
4. Follow the installation instructions given in the cover letter or
documentation file.
