5.8.1 Intel® 82540EM LAN Driver Installation

SCO UnixWare 7.1.1 system can correctly recognize Intel 82540EM network controller during installation. User doesn’t need to load or modify the network driver for the onboard LAN device.

You can find the Intel 82540EM Network driver from support CD at:

\Drivers\Lan\UNIX\UW7DDI8

It is not necessary, nor recommended, to remove previous versions of this package from the system before installing this updated version. To install this package, you may use the scoadmin Application Installer from the desktop, or as a root login with pkgadd command.

1.Copy the eeE8.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 ‘netcfg’ and remove any configured NICs. Exit ‘netcfg’. 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/eeE8.pkg

5.Run ‘netcfg’ to add and configure the NICs.

6.Reboot the system.

If you require Hot Plug PCI capabilities, the DDI 8 eeE8 driver must be used. The DDI 8 driver is supported on UnixWare 7.1.0 and later versions. For more information about Hot Plug PCI capabilities please refer to SCO UnixWare 7 documentation.
