Installing the e3H NIC driver 1. Insert the floppy containing the EtherLink package into the target machine's A: drive. 2. Log in as root and issue this command: % pkgadd -d diskette1 If the package is installed correctly, you will see a message saying so. Fix any problems before continuing. 3. Change directories to /etc/inst/nd/mdi/e3H and issue the following commands (if you already have the e3H driver package installed and have an e3H NIC configured, change the "-a" option below to a "-u" in the idinstall command, and skip steps 5-8): % cd /etc/inst/nd/mdi/e3H % /etc/conf/bin/idinstall -a -k e3H % /etc/conf/bin/idbuild -B This will copy the driver files to the proper places in the kernel directory tree (idinstall) and cause the UNIX kernel to be rebuilt (idbuild). 4. If both idinstall and idbuild complete successfully, you will see a message asking you to reboot the machine. Issue these commands: % cd / % shutdown -y -g0 5. After the machine reboots, log in again as root and issue this command: % netcfg 6. Choose "Add new LAN adapter..." and the NIC will be autodetected. You should see information about the NIC in the middle of the screen. 7. Assuming the NIC is successfully detected, choose "Add protocol..." and pick either TCP/IP or IPX and follow the on-screen instructions. 8. Exit netcfg. 9. Now you should be able to ping other machines on the network. When you reboot, TCP/IP should automatically start running and commands such as telnet and ftp will be available.
