Installation

Users can use the /etc/custom command to install our driver or use
following procedure:

NOTE: Using the "custom" install method for initial installation is highly

recommended.

1. Login with superuser or root.

2. Change your directory to root and copy our driver diskette to

system.

#cd

/

#tar xvf /dev/fd0135ds18

3. Change directory to /etc/pciport and run "build".

#cd

/etc/pciport

#./build

4. Reboot

your

system.

5. The extra serial port can be used.

d. The device name will be: /dev/tty8[1--2][a--h]

e.

The first card number (Jumper ON) will be:
/dev/tty81[a--h]

f.

The second card number (Jumper OFF) will be:
/dev/tty82[a--h]

NOTE: Due to the PCIPORT card's resource is assigned by PCI BIOS,

different resources are assigned for different environments. Users
may need to run "build" command again to remove old driver and
install updated drivers.

For multi-PCIPORT card installation, note the following:

1. To install two of the same PCIPORT cards in one SCO

OpenServer system, set one card's jumper to “ON” and the
other to “OFF”.

2. In SCO OpenServer, PCIPORT cards cannot be used in inter-

rupt shared mode. The PCI BIOS will assign an IRQ for each
