Subject: missing drivers in jensen (alpha) boot floppies
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
X-Mailer: Evolution/1.0.2
Hi,
I've already sent this to -alpha, but I realised I should send it here
as well. Please cc me on any replies, as I'm not subscribed to this
list.
In the boot-floppies 3.0.17 distribution, the standard kernel does not
seem to have network card drivers. Just about every Jensen has a DE422
network card, doesn't it? I'd really like this one fixed, as I'll be
damned if I'm going to feed a million floppies through the machine to
get it installed when I've got a nice fast 'net connection just sitting
here...
Also, it seems as though the Jensen boot floppies/driver disks are
missing modules for aic7xxx SCSI cards.
I'm willing to help out here, but I have 2 problems. The first is I
don't know how, the second is I have no Alphas currently installed. I
DO have 2 Jensens waiting to be installed, however. I will be willing
to contribute detailed installation instructions for these horrible
beasts once I've got the install down to a fine art, once someone helps
me get there.
Sure, I could install slink, which works out of the box, but I'd rather
contribute to the development of the project :-)
Cheers!
