SCO UNIX LLI driver Installation
================================
A. Software Requirements:
1. ODT 2.0 or higher version, or
SCO Unix 3.2.4 or higher version, or
SCO OpenServer 5.0 or higher version
2. SCO Unix LLI driver disk
B. Installing Driver:
1. Copy the file SUL430TD.Z to SUL430T.dd.Z on a SCO Unix machine.
2. Uncompress SUL430T.dd.Z to SUL430T.dd, using:
uncompress SUL430T.dd
3. Copy the file to a diskette. To create a 3.5" floppy in drive 0, use:
dd if=SUL430T.dd of=/dev/rfd0135ds18
4. Run custom. From the menu select:
Custom -> Install -> A New Product -> Entire Product
For SCO OpenServer, run the Software Manager. From the menus select:
Software -> Install New -> From Host -> Media Floppy -> Full
5. Put the newly created diskette in the drive and select continue.
6. When prompted for distribution floppy 1, just press enter.
7. When custom has completed, remove the diskette and quit custom.
8. Run netconfig. Add the desired chain. The D21X drivers are called:
d21x0, d21x1, d21x2 and d21x3. Remember that d21x0 must be configured
first, before any other driver is configured.
NOTE: For boards with more than one Intel 21X4X on
them, a driver must be installed for each active port on the
board. Thus, if a board has two separate ports, two separate
chains must be created in order to connect both ports to
networks. This is similar to installing two boards, each with
one port.
Not all ports must be active. If only one port is used,
it must be the first port (as it is found on the bus
by the PCI BIOS).
9. When the chain has been configured, select 'q' from the netconfig menu.
If you don't wish to modify the space.c file relink the kernel at the
prompt.
10. If you wish to change parameters in the space.c file, edit
/etc/conf/pack.d/d21x0/space.c and make the required changes.
The changes will apply to all the installed boards.
NOTE: If your system does not support 32-bit protected mode PCI
BIOS calls, you MUST modify the parameter XXX_HW_ACCESSES
to the PCI mechanism appropriate to your system (see space.c
for details).
11. Reboot the system.
C. Parameters
The space.c file contains the different parameters that can be modified.
They can be divided into several groups:
1. Port parameters. These include:
XXX_HW_ACCESSES
XXX_DC2114X_SERIAL_MODE
XXX_BUS_ARBITRATION
XXX_BURST_LENGTH
XXX_CACHE_ALIGNMENT
XXX_PASS_BAD_FRAMES
XXX_BACKOFF_CNTR
XXX_10MB_THRESHOLD
XXX_100MB_THRESHOLD
XXX_PARITY_ERROR_RESPONSE
XXX_LATENCY_TIMER
XXX_CRC_CALC
XXX_DC2114X_GPR_CTRL
XXX_DC2114X_GPR_DATA
XXX_TURBO
XXX_SNOOZE
XXX_MWI, /* Enable/Disable MWI extended PCI command */
XXX_MRM, /* Enable/Disable MRM extended PCI command */
XXX_MRL /* Enable/Disable MRL extended PCI command */
2. Driver tuning parameters:
XXX_RX_BUFS_TO_POST
XXX_RX_PKTS_QUEUED_THRESH_HI
XXX_RX_PKTS_QUEUED_THRESH_LO
XXX_MAX_USRS
3. Driver diagnostics control:
XXX_DEBUG
The meaning of each is explained in detail in the space.c file, including
allowed values for each parameter. The values in space.c apply to ALL
the installed boards.
Space.c is NOT the place to modify the board's slot number line.
This must be modified in netconfig, by running the reconfiguration
script.
Download Driver Pack
After your driver has been downloaded, follow these simple steps to install it.
Expand the archive file (if the download file is in zip or rar format).
If the expanded file has an .exe extension, double click it and follow the installation instructions.
Otherwise, open Device Manager by right-clicking the Start menu and selecting Device Manager.
Find the device and model you want to update in the device list.
Double-click on it to open the Properties dialog box.
From the Properties dialog box, select the Driver tab.
Click the Update Driver button, then follow the instructions.
Very important: You must reboot your system to ensure that any driver updates have taken effect.
