Eg it may correspond to a number painted on the outside of a machine. It doesn't necessarily have anything to do with electrical or logical slot numbers on a PCI bus, or any other bus for that matter. SMBIOS and ACPI BIOS are independent features of a BIOS. You can have one, the other, both, or neither. cheers, -Len - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-acpi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
