There is a DOS based configuration utility that configures the EISA subsystem much
like the IBM Microchannel systems. The utility is provided by the motherboard/system
vendor. In addition to that utility you will need a file for each card that tells the
config utility about the card. The file for each card is provided by the card vendor.
I do not have a Unisys but I do have a generic clone 486DX2-50 EISA board running
Netware 4.1 in my office that I have some special purpose DOS based systems attached
via Token Ring.
