Installing the Driver Software Manually

The Sun GigaSwift Ethernet Adapter CD contains the driver software required to
operate the adapter. When you update your Solaris operating system, refer to the
documentation that shipped with the Solaris Supplement CD-ROM for a listing of the
available network drivers. Install the Sun GigaSwift Ethernet driver for your
updated version of the Solaris operating system.

To Install the Driver Software Manually

1. Become superuser.

2. Insert the Sun GigaSwift Ethernet Adapter CD into a CD-ROM drive that is

connected to your system.

If your system is running Sun Enterprise Volume Manager™, it should
automatically mount the CD-ROM to the /

cdrom/cdrom0

directory.
