prompt for informalion as appropriate, including the

 number, inlerrupt number, and memory ad-

dress used by the LNE390 to be installed.

After installation. it will be necessary to reboot-strap
the system. When the system is next loaded. 

 device drivers will be active and ready 

service.

 Implementation Notes

The LNE390 

 device driver. as Installed by 

LANMAN SETUP program, is located   a 

 assigned directory. Assuming that the

 the LNE390 driver directory is:

In this directory there are two files, 
and 

 or 

 depending on

which operating system is used. In addition, there

is 

file called 

 in the directory.

The 

 file is a text file that 

information on the location, name, and type 

driver to be installed.

The 

 file contains the configuration

parameters for the driver to use on system start-up

This file can be manually edited if, for any reason,

it is incorrect or the actual hardware 
has changed.
