Enabling the PCI Ethernet Controller

The XVME-653/658 incorporates a high-performance 32-bit PCI bus mastering Ethernet
controller.

Loading the Ethernet Driver

To enable the Ethernet controller, you must load the applicable Ethernet driver for your
operating system. Refer to the READMEFIRST.TXT file on the Intel 558 Ethernet Driv-
ers disk for installation instructions. For best results, always use the supplied drivers.

Using a DiskOnChip

The DiskOnChip device is a self-contained solid-state disk drive that is packaged in a
32-pin device. It can be plugged into the onboard SRAM/Flash socket.
Perform the following steps to configure the XVME-653/658 to use a DiskOnChip:
1. Plug the DiskOnChip into socket U9 on the CPU module. Be sure the direction is
correct (pin 1 of the DiskOnChip is aligned with pin 1 of the socket).
2. Turn on the system and enter the BIOS setup menus. (See Chapter 3 for information
on accessing the BIOS setup menus.)
3. Select the Advanced menu option from the BIOS Setup main screen.
4. Select the Integrated peripherals option.
5. Select the 32-pin ROM site option.
6. Set the 32-pin ROM site type to DiskOnChip.
7. Set the 32-pin ROM site address to the desired value.
8. Exit the BIOS setup menus and reboot the system.
If the DiskOnChip is the only drive in the system, it will appear as the first disk (drive C:
in DOS). If there are other drives in the system, the DiskOnChip will appear by default as
the last drive, unless it is programmed as the first drive.
