106 1.3. System Requirements
111    * Cirrus Logic LAN (CS8900/20-based) Ethernet ISA Adapter
125    * CS8900/20 Setup Utility (DOS-based)
155 stored in an on-board EEPROM. You must use the DOS-based CS8900/20 Setup
163 Since the CS8900/20 Setup Utility is a DOS-based application, you must install
164 and configure the adapter in a DOS-based system using the CS8900/20 Setup
165 Utility before installation in the target LINUX system.  (Not required if
187 CS8900/20 Setup Utility.
196 run the CS8900/20 Setup Utility to disable PnP and configure the
197 adapter before installation in the target Linux system.  Failure to do

396 	 OS/2, or other operating system.
398 To run the diagnostics tests on the CS8900/20 adapter:
400    1.  Boot DOS on the PC and start the CS8900/20 Setup Utility.
414 its ability to communicate across the ISA bus based on the system resources
419      The IO Register Read/Write test insures that the CS8900/20 can be
424      The Shared Memory test insures the CS8900/20 can be accessed in memory
426      with other devices in the system.
439      The Chip RAM test insures the 4K of memory internal to the CS8900/20 is
457 Failure of a test item indicates a possible system resource conflict with
459 option to reconfigure the adapter by selecting a different value for the system
467 transferring data between two CS8900/20 adapters installed in different PCs
471 This test requires that each of the two PCs have a CS8900/20-based adapter
472 installed and have the CS8900/20 Setup Utility running.  The first PC is
484     1.  Select a PC with a CS8900/20-based adapter and a known working network
485 	connection to act as the Responder.  Run the CS8900/20 Setup Utility
489     2.  Return to the PC with the CS8900/20-based adapter you want to test and
490 	start the CS8900/20 Setup Utility.
521 of four ways after installing and or configuring the CS8900/20-based adapter:
523     1.  The system does not boot properly (or at all).
534 If an IO conflict occurs, run the CS8900/20 Setup Utility and perform a
542 CS8900/20 Setup Utility.  Once reinstalled in the target system, run the
