--------------------------------------------------------------

Introduction
-------------
        This is EN1203 (DC21040) PCI Ethernet Adapter SCO Unix LLI driver.
        It is a custom installable LLI driver, configured using netconfig.
        The LLI driver requires the following software:
        - SCO ODT 2.0 or higher version, or SCO Unix 3.2.2 or higher version.

Installation Procedure
----------------------
1. Prepare a formatted diskette on any DOS machine.
        For example, type:

        C>format a:

Note: Make sure your diskette is free from bad sectors.
                Verify this using the DOS CHKDSK command

2. Run F2TAR.EXE to generate an Installation Diskette
        for the UNIX system.

        a. After executing the "f2tar" command, the
                following message will be shown on the screen:

        "Target drive letter (press 'A' or 'B'):"

        Press 'A' for the first drive, 'B' for second drive.

        b. Then "f2tar" will load the data file
                "unixdrvr.tar" into memory and display the
                following messages:

                "Reading file, please wait."
                ......
                "Done."

        c. Note that if you are using the same drive for
                both Source Diskette and UNIX Installation
                Diskette, "f2tar," the following message will
                appear onscreen:

                "Remove the original diskette from drive A"
                or
                "Remove the original diskette from drive B"

        d. Insert the formatted diskette into your
                floppy drive (A: or B:) when your system prompts
                you to do so. Then press <Enter> to proceed.

        e. After transferring the files, the following
                messages will be shown onscreen.

                "Generating UNIX Installation Diskette on drive ()"
                "Press [Ctrl][C] to abort."

                If you want to abort the operation, press <Ctrl> and <C>
                at the same time.

                Please wait for a few seconds, and the UNIX
                Installation Diskette will be created. Note
                that the resulting diskette is in UNIX tar format;
                it cannot be read by DOS.

3. When data file transfer is complete, the following message
        will appear onscreen.

        "Please remove the diskette from drive A".

4. If you are using the same drive for both Source
        Diskette and UNIX Installation Diskette, the
        following message will also be shown onscreen.

        "Please insert the original diskette to drive A"
        "Press [ENTER] to continue ..."

5. Follow screen instructions to complete the process.
6. Remove the UNIX Installation Diskette and login to
        the UNIX system as root.
7. Now the UNIX Installation Diskette is ready for use.
        Login to UNIX system as supervisor (root).

        (Note: Make sure that the current directory is "/"
         using UNIX command - pwd.)

8. The following sections describe the configuration of
        the driver. It is suggested that you should perform
        these instructions in the singler-user environment.

        Run custom utility and select the "Install new package"
        option. It will prompt you to insert "DC21040 EISA/PCI
        Ethernet's LLI driver" Floppy Volume 1.

9. After reading drive A, it will show a message prompting
        you to use "netconfig" to add drivers into your
        system.

10. Run "netconfig". Add the desired chain. The DC21040
        drivers are called: dce0, dce1, dce2 and dce3.
        Rember the dce0 must be configured first, before any
        other driver is configured.

11. When the chain has been configured, select 'q' from the
        netconfig menu. and relink the kernel at the prompt.

12. To active the adapter, you must reboot. When the system
        boots, you should see the following message among the
        other configuration messages:

        %dce    0xD000-D800 9 -    type=DC21040/TP addr=00-00-E8-04-98-56

        with the appropriate I/O addresses, IRQ, Media Type and IEEE address.


13. Use the PCI BIOS setup program to configure Accton's
        EN1203 PCI Ethernet adapter.

14. If you encounter any problems during installation,
         (i.e., an error message appears onscreen)
         call your dealer for assistance.

Note:
        1. Full-Duplex support.
        2. AutoSense AUI/BNC/Twisted-Pair connection media.
        3. The driver supports up to 4 boards (EISA and PCI mixed).
           It is not recommended to configure more than 1 PCI board due to
           PCI BIOS limitation.
        4. Device name is dce0, dce1, dce2, dce3
