ENHANCEMENTS

1) Added new errata kernel support.

Please read this section before proceeding. 

This RPM will install binary drivers that will only work with the default 
United Linux kernels, and the configurations that it has been built for. Earlier 
or later versions of United Linux are not supported. Special actions are required 
if you have modified the default kernel configuration that SuSE ships 
for their United Linux product. If you have modified the default kernel 
configuration you will need to rebuild the kernel with the updated sources located
in /usr/src/packages/SOURCES.

This driver RPM will not install if the loopback device is not configured 
but the initrd image is requested since the loopback device is required 
to create the initrd image. 

INSTALLATION

Login as the system administrator (root), download the RPM to a directory
on your hard drive and change to that directory.

To install the driver type:
  # rpm -Uhv --replacefiles mptlinux-<version>-<release>.<distro>.<arch>.rpm

If an error occurs during installation, DO NOT reboot your system as the driver
may not have been loaded properly and the system may be in an unusable state.
You should remove the rpm immediately.

Note:  If you are installing another rpm which modifies the boot loader
       (i.e. HP cciss rpm) please install the mptlinux rpm first, and then
       install the other rpm.  You may then boot the entry added by the
       other rpm rather than the original OS entry as would normally be
       required (see above).

Setup is now complete.  Please REBOOT you computer NOW!!

To remove the rpm use the following command:
  # rpm -e mptlinux-<version>-<release>

To load the module use the following commands:
  # insmod mptbase
  # insmod mptscsih

  if needed:
  # insmod mptlan
  # insmod mptctl
