I would try:
See if there is a floppy drive connector on the motherboard, even if one is not installed. Look for an old PCI ide/floppy controller card, install it and be sure to disable the IDE portion of the controller. Copy the CD to a Windows system, look at the folder structure for all the 20 or so HBA packages, and add your particular one, then create a new CD. |

Thank you for your reply.
I'v found out another way to solve this problem.
The new way is to Rebuilding the sco openserver's CD,put the new HBA driver into it. |

Can someone tell me how to rebuild the SCO OpenServer CD and to include the latest driver for the IBM x3650 that comes without a floppy drive. Thank you.

I am not sure that you really need to rebuild the install CD, you could just put your HBA files onto a CD. May be take a look at:
How can I create a CD iso HBA from a floppy HBA image? about how to take the fd images and burn them so that they can be read by the system on CD. |

You should consider getting / borrowing a USB floppy drive. Most of the IBM sSeries servers boot from floppy. I have successfully install 3 x3400 last year this way. IBM ServeRAID includes floppy diskette images that with the included utility to write these images to floppy diskettes.
