Directory contains IBM unique loadable device drivers (DDs) for NS2800 and NS2200

For 2800:
---------
  seeprom_2800.o - NS2800 Loadable device driver to read/write NVRAM
                   Create dev file (major 60, minor 0) 
                    (Note that device can be created in /tmp also, if no space in /dev)
                     mknod  /dev/seeprom c 60 0     or
                     mknod  /tmp/seeprom c 60 0    
                   Load the module (kernel must support loadable module)
                     insmod -f seeprom_2800.o
                   Call the module
                      To read 512 bytes of NVRAM into a binary file:
                         cp /dev/seeprom    /tmp/nvram.bin
                      To write 512 bytes of NVRAM from a 512-byte binary file to NVRAM:
                         cp /tmp/nvram.bin  /dev/seeprom
   
  reboot_2800.o  - NS2800 Loadable device driver to reboot/shutdown
                   Create dev file (major 61, minor 0)
                     mknod  /dev/reboot c 61 0
                   Load the module (kernel must support loadable module)
                     insmod -f reboot_2800.o
                   Call the module
                      echo 0 > /dev/reboot  - this will reboot the system
                      echo 1 > /dev/reboot  - this will turn the softoff
 

For 2200:
---------
  seeprom_2200.o - NS2200 Loadable device driver to read/write NVRAM
                   Usage: same as 2800, except use seeeprom_2200.o in insmod command  

  reboot_2200.o  - NS2200 Loadable device driver to reboot/shutdown
                   Create dev file (major 61, minor 0)
                     mknod  /dev/reboot c 61 0
                   Load the module (kernel must support loadable module)
                     insmod -f reboot_2200.o
                   Call the module
                      echo 0 > /dev/reboot  - this will reboot the system
                      echo 1 > /dev/reboot  - this will turn the softoff
