Physically adding a PnP adapter

You can physically add a adapter either before you install the system or at any time after the installation.

The adapter should be enabled for Plug and Play mode. Check the card's documentation to determine whether or not you need to set jumpers on the adapter to enable this capability.

If you installed the adapter before you installed the system, start the PnP Configuration Manager and skip to ``Selecting a adapter and device to configure''.

To add a adapter to an already installed system:

1. Log in to the system as root.

2. Halt the system with the System Shutdown Manager or the shutdown(1M) command.

3. Turn the power off and disconnect the power cord to your system.

4. Physically add the adapter to an empty ISA slot on your motherboard. Be sure that the adapter is enabled for Plug and Play mode.

5. Turn the power on and restart the system.
