Packages Not Listed With
pkgadd
If no packages are listed after you execute the
pkgadd
command, you must manually
mount and unmount the package disk. This appears to be a problem with some
versions of SVR4 in the implementation of
pkgadd
. Follow these steps to manually
mount and unmount the package disk:
# mount -Fs5 /dev/dsk/f03ht /mnt <CR>
# pkgadd -d /dev/dsk/f03ht <CR>
Follow the installation procedure outline in Installing Version 2.02 Device Driver. To
complete the installation:
# umount /mnt
Note: The device name
/dev/dsk/f03ht
refers to a 3½ inch floppy drive
configured as drive 0. Substitute 1 for 0 if your 3½ floppy is configured as
the second drive. Substitute the 3 with the number 5 if you are using a 5¼
diskette (i.e.
/dev/dsk/f05ht
) when drive 0 is a 5¼ diskette.

Example:
When logged into a MEGAPORT port, entering the following to cause
a driver to honor XON/XOFF flow control independent of whether the
port is set up for
-ixon
, enter:
meixon
To disable the operation of this feature from a MEGAPORT port, type:
megastty -ixon
