Installing HPUX11i v1

[NickPHughes]

I am attempting to cold install hpux11i v1 on an hp9000 d380 server.
When I run SEA (to search for possible boot devices) from the main menu, the system does not detect the CD drive. I have disk 1 Core OS Install and Recovery Version B.11.11 loaded.
The drive is internal and is powered and flashes during system boot.

Could you attach the output of the devices that your system detects, please?

Regards.

fyi--- searching for possible boot devices is "sea ipl" .

If the drive is not detecting in "sea" means ,issue some where the h/w ..check Jumper settings of the CD drive ,scsi cable ,Drive.

The path is normally written inside the "door", e.g.

8/16/5.2.0

You can use this path directly to boot.

Be aware the number of results of a search is limited - if you have many disks connected, you probably cannot see them all.
