PCnet™ Family Software FAQs - SCO UNIX
I am trying to install an AMD PCI controller based adapter card using the net config program. If I let the net config program to do an auto-detect, the driver does not load on reboot. Is this a driver defect, and is there a workaround to solve this problem?

I want to do a remote installation of SCO workstation from the server. I cannot find a driver to support the AMD PCnet™ device based card. Why?





Q:I am trying to install an AMD PCI controller based adapter card using the net config program. If I let the net config program to do an auto-detect, the driver does not load on reboot. Is this a driver defect, and is there a workaround to solve this problem?
A:In the netconfig program, please ignore the detected card and choose the "Configure Hardware Not Listed Above" option. Then choose "AMD PCnet PCI" adapter from the given list. Click continue, and in the configuration options choose PCI Bus#0, Device#0 and Function#0. Click OK. Configure your protocols. Exit netconfig. Relink/Rebuild your UNIX environment and then reboot.
