Installing the eeE Driver for UnixWare* 2.x

  1. Copy the eee.pkg file into any directory on the UnixWare system, such as in the /tmp directory.

  2. Make sure no other users are logged on and all user applications are closed.

  3. If there is an older version of the eeE driver on the system, first run 'niccfg' and remove any configured NICs. Exit 'niccfg'. Remove the old driver by typing 'pkgrm eeE'. (You can find the driver version by typing 'pkginfo -l eeE'.)

  4. Install the new driver using 'pkgadd'. For example:

    # pkgadd -d /tmp/eee.pkg

  5. Run 'niccfg' to add the NICs to the system. (Sometimes, 'niccfg' might bring up a window with an error message saying that it could not find the adapter that is being configured. If this happens, ignore the error and continue. When the system reboots in step 7, the driver should find the adapter.)

  6. Run '/etc/inet/menu' to configure TCP/IP parameters.

  7. Reboot the system.

NOTE: The adapter automatically detects the link speed and duplex mode. If you want to force any of these settings, you should edit the file /etc/conf/pack.d/eeE/space.c. You can modify the variable eeE_speed_duplex to force speed or duplex settings. (The space.c file has the values for setting this variable). After modifying the file, save it, rebuild the Unix kernel using 'idbuild' and reboot the system. CAUTION: These changes should be made by an expert Unix system user only.
