To set ipg1 to 20 and ipg2 to 10 for the SUNW,hme device in
SBus slot 0xe
You can also specify the properties described in the section "Setting Parameters
in the /etc/system File" on page 25 on a per device basis by creating the
hme.conf file in the /kernel/drv directory. The properties set in the
hme.conf file will override the parameters set in the /etc/system file. Use
hme.conf when you need to set a particular parameter for a device in the
system. The parameters you set are read and write parameters that are listed
in Chapter 3.
The man pages for prtconf (1M), system (4) and driver.conf (4) include
additional details. For example:
1. Invoke the prtconf -v command and pipe the output to the more
command ( prtconf -v | more ) or redirect the output of the
command to a file name ( prtconf -v > filename) and print the
redirected file.
2. Find the section in the prtconf -v output for SUNW,hme,instance #0,
