Solaris 7.0 Installation Procedure in Intel x86 system
------------------------------------------------------

1. Now login to Sun Microsystem as superuser (root).

   Note: Make sure that the current directory is "/" using Solaris command
         -- pwd

   Please follow the following steps to uncompress the package file:

   > #mkdir /temp

   > #cd /temp		(and insert the package floppy in the proper 
			 drive, i.e. a:; Please click "Open Floppy" on
			 GUI [Graphical User Interface], then copy *.zip
			 to this directory.)

   > #unzip afe-0.9.8-i386.zip
			(Extract tar file and see the "Packages/i386" 
			 directory.)

   > #pkgadd -d /temp/afe-0.9.8/Packages/i386 all
			(Add this package to Sun Microsystem. Press 'y' 
			 twice while asking [Do you want to continue with 
			 Installation?].)

   Now the package installation diskette is ready for installing.

2. The following sections describe the configuration of the driver. It is 
   suggested that you perform these instructions in the Solaris 7.0.

   Please follow the instructions for installation.

    > # vi /etc/hostname.afe0  (create a file, hostname.afe0, by typed as
			      follow.)

	'IP address your assign'     'Host name'     loghost

     For example:

	192.168.10.1                 solaris         loghost

   > # sync;sync;sync;

   > # reboot
	
   After following the instructions and the driver package is installed, you 
   should use the "ifconfig -a" command to view the package loaded in the Sun
   Microsystem after reboot system.
   (see step 4 below).

3. Run "ifconfig -a" on solaris command. The driver will be called as "afe0".

4. If you would like to check the driver worked fine, you can use "ping xx.xx.xx.xx"
   or "snoop -d afe0" to view the received status.
