Hello!

I am trying to install sco ODT1.0 on Intel402(486) machine and have the
following questions:
   1.Is it support 3c505 card? In document it says that it support
     3c503 and 3c501. The problem is the interrupt vector. 3c505 card
     has interrupt vector biger that 2. The ODT1.0 recommends using 2.
     What I am trying to do is using interrupt 3 for 3c505  but it seems
     conflicting with COM2 although I disabled it in machine setup.
     The use of interrupt vector is:
     0- clock,  1 - console, 2 - none (mouse cannot use it under ODT)
     3 - 3c505, 4 - com1, 5 - mouse, 6 - floppy, 7 - parallel

     When system boot up, the hardware configuration message indicate:
     ..."e3B0 board not present"
 
   2. The VGA card I use is VGAWonder+ which can give me 800*600 resolution.
     But it also not listed in the supported hardware. I use it as an
     IBM VGA which only gives me 600*400. Is there anyone know which
     card in the supported list is compatible with VGAWonder+?


   Please reply directly by e-mail, thanks very much!
