Drivers for the Intel PRO/1000 series Gigabit Ethernet family of network cards - eeG Driver version 3.1.7a KEYWORDS: openserver v5 osr5 eeG intel PRO/1000 ethernet adapter drivers bus pci 5.0.7 ftp downloadable network fz534201 custom install downgrade RELEASE: SCO OpenServer Enterprise System Release 5.0.7 SCO OpenServer Desktop System Release 5.0.7 SCO OpenServer Host System Release 5.0.7 PROBLEM: What driver is available for the Intel PRO/1000 and HARDWARE listed below? HARDWARE: All of the following cards are supported in the version 3.1.7a eeG Driver: Note 1: The format of the below contains 2 lines. The first line is the generic card name form the configuration file. The second line contains board_id: card_name. Note 2: To obtain the board_id, type the following as root: "hw -r bus -v | egrep 'VendorId|DeviceId'", and concatenate the pair of 4 digit hex numbers of each (ie. If the VendorId is 0x1234 and the DeviceId is 0x5678, then the board_id to look for below, would be '12345678').

Installation To install these drivers, take the following steps: - Log in as root. - Download the volume image to your machine to a directory, for example, /tmp/vol. - Run 'custom' and select 'Install New'. Install from your host machine using 'Media Images'. - Give the directory name where the volume images have been downloaded, for example, /tmp/vol. - Complete the installation and exit custom. - Install the network adapter hardware into your computer. - Run 'netconfig' and configure the new adapter. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ II. Software Notes The compatible bus type for this driver is PCI. This driver has been tested with and is supported on: SCO OpenServer Release 5.0.7: osr507mp5 - Maintainance Pack 5 for SCO OpenServer Release 5.0.7 This driver supports 82544, 82540, 82545, 82546, 82541, 82547, 82571, and 80003 MAC based devices. Legacy adapters based on the 82542 and 82543 MAC controllers are NOT supported by this driver. If any of these legacy devices, or any other devices are recognized by this driver, it is advised NOT to configure them.
