6.4.2 Configuring the Adapter

The following procedures apply to every PCI-based RS/6000 system that supports
the 8-Port Asynchronous ISA Adapter

1. Check if there are any ISA adapters that are already installed in your computer

by using the following command:

lsdev -Cc adapter -s isa

Default Parameters

If the 8-Port Asynchronous ISA Adapter is the first ISA adapter of this type
installed into your system, you may use the default bus I/O address of

x324

.

2. If any ISA adapter is installed, enter the command:

lsresource -l bus -a | grep bus_io

This command generates a list of adapters using bus I/O that looks similar to
the following:

bus_io_addr
