# Installing the AIX 3.2 driver for the IBM RISC System\6000

You can use two types of Madge Smart Ringnodes in the IBM RISC System/6000 running AIX 3.2. These are the Madge Smart 16/4 MC Ringnode and the Madge Smart 16/4 MC32 Ringnode. The driver for these ringnodes is called MTOKDD. The following instructions describe how to install the driver software.

| The following instructions assume you are installing the driver under AIX 3.2.5. Under different versions of AIX 3.2.x, the installation is similar. However, the wording of some smit utility options may differ.

Before installing the driver, create an installation disk. To do this:

1. Log into your AIX system as root.

2. Copy the mdgaix32.img file from the Madge CD into a /tmp directory.

3. Place a blank formatted 3.5-inch disk in drive A: and enter the command:
   dd if=/tmp/mdgaix32.img of=/dev/fd0

This creates a installable version of the driver, MTOKDD, on the floppy disk.
