3. The third screen requests the base I/O address you selected for the first

select for each ISI does not overlap with existing devices or with
another ISI. The ISI card uses the base I/O address and the next
fifteen addresses.

your system, you must remove the ISI driver and reinstall it.
Enter the base I/O address and press ENTER. For additional

6. The /dev directory holds device-information files used by the kernel to
access the hardware. When you add an ISI card, you must give the ISI
ports unique names, so they do not conflict with existing ports or other
devices known to your system. If you use an existing device name to
identify your new ISI ports, the existing device is deleted when the ISI
port using its name is created.
