Hi, I'm installing Debian 1.3.1 from the Infomagic Developer's Resource CD (Aug 97, kernel 2.0.29) on an old p5-60 with an Opti chipset and AMIBIOS (C)1992, Version 1.00.09AF2. The machine was an oldie and not-so-goodie (FDIV bug and all), but hopefully it's still a usable machine.
Anyway, I'm getting an error upon bootup: ... ide0: buggy RZ1000 interface: not enabled hda: WDC AC11200L, 1222MB w/256kB Cache, LBA, CHS=2484/16/63 ide0 at 0x1f0-0x1f7,0x3f6 on irq 14 ... I've got my old Creative 2x CD-ROM on ide0 and my other WD drive on ide1. I can't seem to get anything plugged into ide0 to be recognized. I think I have everything plugged in correctly, though I'm not certain. 1) Is the kernel calling the physical port ide1 ide0 now because the physical ide0 is not enabled? 2) Does the standard Rescue kernel contain the RZ1000 patch, or is that usually left out by default? 3) Do I need to compile another kernel somewhere to get this recognized? (I've run Slack and RHL on this machine before without problems, but don't know whether it was because of the RZ1000 patch or not.) 4) Do I need to modify my bios settings? And where could I find information on what those settings should be for such a dinosaur? TIA! -- __ _ David S.
