  BEFORE YOU BEGIN
  --------------------------------------------------------------------------
  If your computer does NOT have a plug-and-play motherboard, 
  the following notes apply to you:

  1.  Before attempting to install the Ether16 LAN Card's network
      software drivers, you MUST configure the card's internal
      settings with the SETUP program included on Ether16 disk 1
      under the UTILITY directory.  Use the program to set the
      card's interrupt (IRQ) and I/O settings.  For directions
      on using SETUP, see your Ether16 user guide.
  
  2.  Most network software packages like Windows 95, Windows NT,
      Novell NetWare, etc., include a "generic" network driver
      that will work with a wide range of network cards.  This
      generic driver is called a "Novell NE2000" compatible driver,
      and it is fully supported by the Ether16 card.  If your 
      network software package asks you to choose the name of
      the network card you're installing from a list of available
      adapters, and you find "NE2000" or "Novell NE2000" listed,
      you don't need to follow the directions below---simply choose
      to install the NE2000 driver and the Ether16 Card will be
      ready for use.  THE ETHER16 IS ONLY NE2000 COMPATIBLE
      WHEN THE CARD'S PLUG-AND-PLAY MODE IS TURNED OFF.  If 
      your PC has a plug-and-play motherboard, and you wish to 
      use the generic NE2000 driver, you must run the Ether16 
      SETUP program and turn the card's plug-and-play mode off.


  Setup
  -----------------------------------------------------------------
    
     Login to UNIX at root
    
     Execute the following commands:

        #doscp a:/unixware/setup setup
        #chmod +x setup
        #./setup  a:/unixware (modify path as needed)

     Install the driver by typing the following:

        #cd /usr/lib/tcprt/eth
        #chmod +x setupisa
        #./setupisa

      The program displays the following message:

        Do you wish to install or delete the network driver(i/d/q)?

     Type "i" to install.

        Do you want to configure Board_0? (y/n/q)

     Type "y" for yes.  The following messages appear:

        Board_0 configuring ...

        Please enter the IP host name for the device d22e_0(default:xx )

        Configure host XXXX with default Ethernet(TM) ifconfig option?

     Answer the first two prompts accordingly
     For the last prompt, answer "yes"

      NOTE:
        For non-PnP adapter, specify the I/O base address and IRQ number of
        the adapter via the Setup program. Make sure the specified values
        do not conflict with other adapters on the system.

      The following prompt then appears:

         Please choose the media mode that you want............
