+.Sh NAME

+.Nd Introduction to EISA bus machine-independent drivers and support
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+Machine-dependent; depends on the bus topology and
+.Tn EISA
+bus interface of your system. Typical
+.Tn EISA
+buses are either connected directly
+to the main system bus, or via an
+.Tn PCI
+to
+.Tn EISA
+bridge. See the
+.Xr intro 4
+documentation for your system for details.
+.Sh INTRODUCTION
+.Nx
+includes a machine-independent
+.Tn EISA
+bus subsystem and several machine-independent
+.Tn EISA
+device drivers.
+.Pp
+Your system may support additional
+.Tn EISA
+devices.
+Drivers for
+.Tn EISA
+devices not listed here are machine-dependent.
+Consult your system's
+.Xr intro 4
+for additional information.
+.Sh SUPPORTED DEVICES
