How can I get IRIX to recognize the Fast Ethernet board I just installed?
I've done the usual
cd /dev
/dev/MAKEDEV
/etc/autoconfig
and rebooted, but I don't see the vfe card in the hinv -c from IRIX... I've
Googled, and R-ed TF online M at techpubs.sgi.com, but I must be missing
some key nomenclature, since my searches don't turn up anything about
installation and configuration.
I got the vfe board from Bear Stricklin of this list, so I'm pretty sure it
works, but merely slapping it in the chassis obviously isn't enough. I'm
certain I need to do something special to make it work, but what?
(SGI Challenge L, IRIX 6.5)
Thanks.
