In slot-based machines, the LAN driver usually locates the network board by scanning through the slots in order from lowest to highest.

This option directs the driver to locate the network board in the specified slot, instead of scanning for it.

Syntax

slot number

 

Use the number of the slot you inserted the

 

network board into. The slot number is usually
