7. Verify the auto-configuration of the 21555 and other options.
a. If the on-board ROM is preloaded the 21555 banner displays.
b. Verify that system BIOS or firmware detects and configures the 21555.
c. To verify the loading of the SROM, run the MKSROM utility without an SROM file as an

Interrupt Routing
shows the ORing of interrupts. A total of 12 interrupts are connected to each of three
secondary bus PCI slots but four interrupts are driven to the card edge. The 12 incoming interrupts
must be combined. Interrupt ORing is in accordance with the PCI-to-PCI Bridge Architecture
Specification V2.x.
must be combined. Interrupt ORing is in accordance with the PCI-to-PCI Bridge Architecture
Specification V2.x.
In accordance with the PCI Bridge Architecture Specification, the interrupts of the devices on the
secondary slots are wire ORed and routed to PCI fingers of the DE1B55503.
