Multiple Card Behavior

The following are limitations or features when running multiple cards installed in
the same system.

Networking With Multiple Cards

Virtual networking is automatically disabled in systems with more than one card
installed. Use physical networking with multiple card configurations.

Using the Diskette Drive With Multiple Cards

When multiple cards on a system are running, once the diskette drive is being used
by a SunPCi II session, it is not available to any other session. When not in use, the
diskette drive is locked to the first SunPCi II session started after it becomes
available.

Using the CD-ROM Drive With Multiple Cards

When multiple cards on a system are running, they all share the system CD-ROM
drive. One unusual, but expected behavior is that when you insert a CD into the
drive, Autorun starts on all running SunPCi sessions.
