Installing the e3K NIC driver 1. Untar e3Kuw7.tar into a directory of your choosing. This installation guide assumes you untarred the files into /usr/src. Replace references to /usr/src with the directory path where you untarred e3Kuw7.tar. 2. Log in as root and issue this command: % pkgadd -d /usr/src/e3Kuw7/e3Kuw7.pkg 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/e3K and issue the following commands (if you already have the e3K driver package installed and have an e3K NIC configured, change the "-a" option below to a "-u" in the idinstall command, and skip steps 5-8): % cd /etc/inst/nd/mdi/e3K % /etc/conf/bin/idinstall -a -k e3K % /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.
