The PCI BIOS assigns 0 to the Primary
Bus and continues downstream with
the controller discovery.
Slot 1 is empty, no PCI bus number
assignment.
NIC in slot 2 contains a PCI bridge and
the PCI BIOS increments the PCI bus
number to 1.
Slots 3 and 4 are empty, no PCI bus
number assignment.
The PCI BIOS discovers the
Secondary Bus and assigns it bus
number 6.
NIC in slot 5 contains a PCI bridge and
the PCI BIOS increments the PCI bus
number to 7.
Slots 6-8 are empty, no PCI bus
number assignment.
The PCI BIOS discovers the Tertiary
Bus and assigns it bus number 13.
Slot 9 is empty, no PCI bus number
assignment.
Intelligent drive array controller with
PCI bridge is detected in slot 10. The
PCI BIOS increments the PCI number
to bus 14 and assigns it to the bridge
on the controller.
Slot 11 also contains a bridged array
controller, changing its original bus
number from bus 14 to bus 15.
*Bus number is different than previous configuration.
