Platform Notes: The SunATM Driver Software

Removing Links to Older SunATM 1.0 Device Entries

When you remove older versions of the SunATM software with the pkgrm utility, certain device entries in the /dev and /devices directories will not be removed. If you are installing the SunATM 5.1 software packages on a system in which a SunATM 1.0 SBus adapter had been installed, remove these device entries. The SunATM 1.0 hardware used the sa driver (which is not supported in the SunATM 5.1 software), and previous versions of the SunATM software created the /dev/sa and /devices/pseudo/clone@0:sa device entries.

  1. To remove these SunATM 1.0 device entries, type:


    # rm /dev/sa
    # rm /devices/pseudo/clone@0:sa
