Hey guys...hopefully this will be a fairly easy one. I've got an old SPARCstation 5 running Sun 5.5.1 that I just hooked up to the network so that I can run HP OpenView. The box is working fine, but it is broadcasting as a boot server. In other words, when co-workers come in and get ready to log...

podulebus

PODULEBUS(4)						   BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual 					      PODULEBUS(4)

NAME

     podulebus -- Acorn Expansion Card bus driver

SYNOPSIS

     podulebus0 at ioc0 bank 4
     (NetBSD/acorn26)
     podulebus0 at root
     (NetBSD/acorn32)

DESCRIPTION

     The podulebus driver handles the expansion-card interface in Archimedes machines and their successors.  This includes conventional expansion
     cards, mini expansion cards (as introduced in the A3000), network expansion cards (as introduced in the A3020), DEBI expansion cards (as
     introduced in the Risc PC), and Mk II network cards (also introduced in the Risc PC).  Drivers for individual cards attach as children of the
     podulebus device.

     NetBSD includes several machine-independent expansion card device drivers.  There are also some device drivers which are specific to
     NetBSD/acorn26 or NetBSD/acorn32.

HARDWARE

     The following devices are supported by NetBSD.

   SCSI interfaces
     asc	 Acorn AKA30, AKA31, and AKA32 SCSI expansion cards (NetBSD/acorn32).

     csc	 Cumana 16-bit SCSI interface (NetBSD/acorn32).

     hcsc	 HCCS 8-bit SCSI interface.

     oak	 Oak SCSI interface.

     ptsc	 Powertec SCSI interface (NetBSD/acorn32).

     sec	 Acorn AKA30, AKA31, and AKA32 SCSI expansion cards.

   Disk controllers
     dtide	 D.T. Software IDE controller.

     hcide	 HCCS IDE controller.

     icside	 ICS IDE controller (NetBSD/acorn32).

     rapide	 Yellowstone Educational Solutions RapIDE IDE controller (NetBSD/acorn32).

     eb 	 Atomwide and ANT network-slot and Acorn AEH61 Ethernet cards (EtherB).

     eh 	 i-cubed EtherLan 100-, 200- and 500-series, and Acorn AEH75, AEH77, and AEH79 Ethernet cards (EtherH) (NetBSD/acorn26).

     ei 	 Acorn AKA25 Ethernet card (Ether1).

     ie 	 Acorn AKA25 Ethernet card (Ether1) (NetBSD/acorn32).

     ne 	 Various vaguely NE2000-compatible Ethernet cards (NetBSD/acorn32).

BUGS

     Too few drivers are shared between NetBSD/acorn26 and NetBSD/acorn32.
