|
|||
|
|
provided with a driver (p/n 910071-001 V2.0) that is compatible
|
|||
|
|
with SCO Xenix and IBM Xenix.
|
|||
|
|

|
* If AST's driver is to be installed in SCO Xenix 2.1.3, the
|
|||
|
|
SCO Link Kit and Development System must be installed before
|
|||
|
|
installing the driver. The Development System may be removed
|
|||
|
|
after the installation of AST's driver.

|||
|
|
Development System must be installed before installing the
|
|||
|
|
driver. The Development System may be removed after the
|
|||
|
|
installation of AST's driver.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Follow the installation procedure in the FourPort/XN manual
|
|||
|
|
when installing AST's driver.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Some versions of SCO Xenix provide a driver for FourPort/XN,
|
|||
|
|
while others do not. The driver can be installed without the
|
|||
|
|
aid of the Development Option. To determine if a driver is
|
|||
|
|
provided, use the following command:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
"grep AST /etc/serinit"
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
If the driver is available, four lines will be displayed and
|
|||
|
|
the entry "AST" will be included in each line. If the driver
|
|||
|
|
isn't available, a prompt will be displayed.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
If SCO's driver exists and is to be installed, issue the
|
|||
|
|
command "/etc/mkdev serial". Refer to SCO's manual for more
|
|||
|
|
information regarding the procedure.
