So far the CHARON-AXP emulators do not support virtual NCR 53C810 PCI SCSI adapter. Instead, virtual QLOGIC ISP1040B PCI SCSI adapter is used.

(info) No support for Multi-Function PCI devices in AlphaServer 400.

Example: Loading DE435 into slot 0:

load DE435 EWA bus=pci_0 device=11 function=0 irq_bus=isa

(info) The "irq_bus=isa" setting is specific to AlphaServer 400 only.

The IRQ stands for input line of ASIC interrupt controllers. It has nothing to do with "EISA" style interrupts. So far, the CHARON-AXP emulators do not emulate S3 Trio32/64 Display Adapter. So position of the device 6, function 0 on the PCI 0 remains empty.

Example 1: Loading multiple DE500BA’s into slot 3, populating all 4 functions (gives 4 Ethernet ports):

load DE500BA EWA bus=pci_0 device=14 function=0
load DE500BA EWB bus=pci_0 device=14 function=1
load DE500BA EWC bus=pci_0 device=14 function=2
load DE500BA EWD bus=pci_0 device=14 function=3

Example 2: Loading mixture of KZPBA and DE500BA into slot 1, populating 2 functions out of 4:

load KZPBA PKB bus=pci_0 device=12 function=0
load DE500BA EWA bus=pci_0 device=12 function=1

(info) In the above examples device name is PKB as there is a built-in PK-like PCI SCSI Adapter located “closer” to CPU and therefore assigned name PKA.
