Hardware

This category contains information on installing, configuring, and maintaining your system hardware and peripheral devices.

In addition to the links in this topic, hardware-related manual pages can be found in Section HW, which describes device drivers, hardware management utilities, and associated kernel interfaces.

For the latest hardware support information, be sure to visit the Compatible Hardware Web Pages, or contact your system supplier.

ISA and EISA network card support

ISA and EISA network card device drivers are provided as-is. No warranty or support of any kind is provided for these devices. ISA and EISA network card devices from UnixWare 7.1.3 and 7.1.4 should work for SCO OpenServer Release 6, but have not been tested. A listing of these devices can be viewed in the Compatible Hardware Web Pages, In future releases, ISA and EISA network device drivers will be removed from the product, as these devices are no longer available. They will not be permitted in computer systems certified for SCO OpenServer Release 6.

Updated and obsolete mass storage interfaces
