This release of the mtok driver does not support netbooting on Smart 16/4 Presto
adapters.
The adapter may fail to open on the ring if not connected to a properly configured
network. Run the diag utility, which is supplied with the adapter, before using
the adapter with the Solaris 2.6 operating environment.
Configuration Procedure
Configuring the Device
Various hardware settings on the adapter, such as the ring speed and DMA channel,
can be set with switches on the adapter or using a configuration utility supplied on
the MDGBOOT diskette shipped with your Ringnode. Refer to the documentation
supplied with the Ringnode for detailed instructions.
When choosing hardware settings:
Ensure that your Ringnode does not use the same IRQ as other adapters in your
PC—and for AT Ringnodes, not the same DMA channel and I/O address.
Make sure the selected ring speed matches that of the ring you want to connect to.
Note that a configuration utility must almost always be used to select features of the
adapter (for example, ring speed). If the adapter isn’t functioning properly, try
alternate features, such as PIO instead of DMA, different I/O addresses, and so on.
