Drivers for devices that run on buses supporting autoconfiguration (such as PCI,EISA, and MCA) need to have a mapping between board ID and device driver set up. Normally, the system sets up this mapping during system boot. Frequently, a hardware configuration utility of some kind is also used on these advanced hardware bus-design systems.
However, for the autoconfigurable driver to install correctly, the board ID mapping needs to be done in the driver's postinstall script. This is done by calling dcu -S (or, for MDI drivers, netcfg) in the postinstall script, although it will happen when the system is rebooted. This should be done after the idinstall.
