The only thing that I can identify as a common factor, is that the
PCI slots are on a riser card. One type is an NLX-form factor
motherboard. The other is an industrial system with a Single Board
Computer (SBC) and a passive backplain. Aside from the riser card, these
machines are completely different. (IDE vs. SCSI, no other PCI devices,
SCSI pci device, pentium vs pentium-II... onboard video/ethernet(in
addition to the intel cards) vs nothing onboard...)
However, we have at least one industrial-type system (with a
different board/config) that works fine with these cards, though we didn't
do the install with one. I'll try that tomorrow and report my findings.
I doubt this is the case, but is the fxp driver different on the install
floppy than on the post-install kernel / kernel-source?
Any suggestions as to what I should look into?
Thanks,
Jay
