IBM AIX
The drivers support the SysKonnect SK-98xx family on AIX 4.3.3, AIX 5.1, and AIX 5.2 oper-
ating systems. For correct driver access, the corresponding Ethernet protocol interface must
be installed for TCP/IP configuration. The drivers can not be installed on machines with less
than 256 MB memory. We recommend to install the drivers on machines offering at least 512
MB memory.
There are two possibilities to install the driver packages on IBM AIX:
•
Automatic installation with “smitty” and the configuration manager
• Manual installation with “smitty”
The installation follows the general guidelines of IBM AIX 4.3 and 5.1/5.2 operating systems
for software package installation of third party device drivers.
Driver packages downloaded from our web site are available in a compressed format (.Z
files). The downloaded package has to be uncompressed before installation.
Uncompress the
driver To uncompress the downloaded driver package, proceed as follows:
1. Go to the directory where the compressed driver package <filename>.pck.Z is located,
e.g. sk98a4x3p.pck.Z for AIX 4.3.3.
2. Uncompress the file with the following command:
uncompress <filename>.pck.Z
The uncompressed driver package has the format <filename>.pck and is ready for instal-
lation.
Install from CD-ROM
on AIX 4.3.3 If the driver is to be installed from CD-ROM on an AIX 4.3.3 operating system, the following
steps have to be executed prior to the driver installation:
1. Boot AIX 4.3.3.
2. Login as “root”.
3. Insert the SysKonnect installation CD-ROM into your CD-ROM drive.
