[ LUGOS ] adaptec adp1505 RH6.1

[Armando KOVACIC]

Zdravo,

ne vem ce ti bo tole kaj pomagalo ampak vseeno :

na 486 masini imam Adaptec 1542b. Dela brez problemov na
IO=330, IRQ=11, DMA=5. Podporo zanjo sem vkljucil, ko sem
prevajal kernel 1.2.13 (redhat 3.0.3).

Imel pa sem grozne probleme pri instalaciji, saj imam na
adaptec obesen CD. Zadeva nikakor ni delala. Nazadnje mi je
uspelo z 'boot: linux aha1542=0x330 root-0b00 ramdisk=256'
parametri pri bootanju iz lilota. Lilo ima zraven kar nekaj
dokumentacije... Seveda veljajo parametri samo za kernel.

Drugace pa: ali si siguren da nimas supporta za kartico ze
v kernelu ? Ali si kernel prevedel sam ? itd...

lp,
	Armando
