Little Board P6d Module

2-11

DMA channel not already in use. For your convenience, Table 2-7 and Table 2-8 provide a summary
of the normal interrupt and DMA channel assignments on the Little Board P6d module.

The PCI bus uses four interrupts (INTA*, INTB*, INTC*, and INTD*). These interrupts are
mapped to any of the available ISA interrupts by the BIOS. If an expansion card has multiple
functions, then more interrupts may be required. You can set the priority in which interrupts are
assigned on Setup 6 — PCI Configuration Setup.

devices.
