1. Compaq Prosignia VS / EISA with NCR53C710 and Linux working !
I finally got my (old) Compaq Prosignia VS with embedded controller working!
I used the 2.2.13 Kernel for this. I compiled the Sim710 driver in the
kernel (not as module)
(info on: http://www.sleepie.demon.co.uk/ncr53c710/ )
Here is my lilo.conf to pass the paramterers:
boot=/dev/sda
map=/boot/map
install=/boot/boot.b
prompt
linear # IMPORTANT
niet
timeout=50
default=sim710
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.2.12-20
label=linux
initrd=/boot/initrd-2.2.12-20.img
read-only
root=/dev/sda5
append="mem=48m"
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.2.13.sim710
label=sim710
read-only
root=/dev/sda5
append="mem=48m sim710=addr:0x8000,irq:11 ether=0,0,eth1"
The last line activaties my NCRC710 driver. And also my second 3com
comtroller that is also compiled int the kernel.
Now I only need to activate the build in NC. Anybody any suggestions?
