[comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware] Chaining Interrupts

schulte@thp.uni-koeln.de (Martin Schulte) (12/03/90)

In the README file for the FAS-Driver (it's supporting standard
serial devices under 386-Unixes (ISC, for example)) the author
stated that Interrupts can't be chained on standard PC/AT-Bus if no
special hardware support is supplied on the boards !

Can anyone explain why this is true and how the hardware avoiding
this problem should look like !

Thanks, Martin
