Folks, I am setting up a new debian 1.1 box.
On booting: > > [...] > Started kswap v 1.4.2.2 > FDC 0 is a National Semiconductor PC87306 > NCR53c406a: no available ports found > PPA: unable to initialise controller at 0x378, error 2 > scsi: 0 hosts > scsi: detected total > lance.c: PCI bios is present, cheking for device which leads to the hard disk not being recongised. We can not proceed with any installation. From our Windows95 system setup I get: > Hard Disk: FUJITSU M2934S-512 > Hard Disk Controllers: Intel PIIX Bus Mastering PCI IDE controller > Primary IDE controller (dual fifo) > Secondary IDE controller (dual fifo) > Standard IDE/ESDI HD controller > SCSI controllers: PCI NCR C815 SCSI Host Adapter > So we need a kernel that supports NCR53c815, do we? Is such a kernel awailable from a development version? I have seen the discussion in June 1996 on the list about NCR53c6x and I think I could use the advice given there to change the kernel on the boot disk, but I do not know where to get the kernel from that would support the controler.
