	After running the "custom" utility and the new package is
	installed, you should use  the "netconfig" command to add
	the driver into your system like the step 4 below.

   3.2. Run "netconfig" to add the desired LAN adapter. The steps
	for adding the new LAN adapter are listed below:

	a. When the "Network Configuration Manager" is shown, please
	   select "Add new LAN adapter" option under "Hardware" main
	   item. 
   
	b. When the screen "Add new LAN Adapter" is shown, then select
	   the option "Configure hardware not listed above... ]". 

	c. After "Select network adapter to be added:" is shown, please  
	   select the "Network Everywhere Fast Ethernet MDI Driver"
	   item to add the driver into the system. 

	d. When the driver is added, the screen "Enter the configuration
	   of Network Everywhere Fast Ethernet MDI Driver"  will be
	   shown, then please select "OK" item to finish this selection
	   if you do not make any change for the "Advanced options... ]". 
	
	e. When the driver is selected correctly, the "Add protocol" will

	   success message is shown as following: 

	   "The following products were sucessfully configured into
	    the system:
		SCO TCP/IP

	g. When the adapter has been configured, select 'q' from the
	   netconfig menu, and relink the kernel at the prompt.

4. To active the adapter, you must reboot. When the system
   boots, you should see the following message among the
   other configuration messages:

   %metf0  0xE400-0xE480   11   12   speed=100Mbs id=[xx-xx-xx-xx-xx-xx]

   with the appropriate I/O addresses, IRQ, PCI device number, Adapter
   Type with the chip type and the six octets of the adapter IEEE MAC
   address.

5. If you encounter any problems during installation, (i.e., an error
   message appears on screen) call your dealer for assistance.
