detecting and loading modules

2000-10-31 Thread Andrew Dixon
HI All,
I was trying to figure out how to look at which
modules I am running and if one is not running force
it to load.  

The module that I am specifically interested in is the
tulip.o module for my pcmcia card.

thanks,
Andy

modprobe -k tulip  will load the tulip module (though pcmcia-cs should
handle this itself).

I did exactly like this, but still get the msg "no such image". when I
type , it shows only 'linux'.

it looks like the installation erased the label for my NT partition. Can
I
reset it in linux? I couldn't find such under linux's fdisk

It worked fine for me when I was running 2.4.0-test5 on my old 600E.

Here's the .config file from the test7 kernel I ran which should be similar 
to the test5 kernel I used (I haven't got the test5 config file any more).

This almost certainly means that you did not rerun "lilo" after editing

rolling a kernel for a different machine

2000-10-31 Thread Andrew Dixon
Hi All,
I'm trying to roll a kernel for my laptop using my
desktop machine.  I tried the usual:
 
#make config
#make dep
#make clean
#make bzdisk

and as I expected the boot disk does not work.  Can
anyone give me any pointers on rolling a kernel on one
machine for an other?

thanks,
Andy

Re: detecting and loading modules

Drew,

Is it the Xircom Realport card? (There are several known problems here..)
What version of the kernel are you running? (The module was renamed -> 2.4.x)

For PCMCIA, have a look at /etc/pcmcia/config, and see if you can find
your card in there.  This (with cardmgr) is what looks after loading
and unloading modules for pcmcia/cardbus cards.

Have you tried make-kpkg yet ? It builds a kernel-image in *.deb format.

Your boot disk has to point to the root partition of the system it's
booting on.  What failure or error messages are you getting from the
laptop when you try to boot?

No, it's a NetGear 510c.  It says on the box that it's
Linux compatable and I even got the 
customer service guys to reply to my e-mail with some
helpful advice.  (that's where I found 
out that it needs the tulip.o module)


  What version of the kernel are you running? (The

I'm running a 2.0.xx.  That could very well be the
problem so right now I'm trying to roll a 
custom kernel.



  For PCMCIA, have a look at /etc/pcmcia/config, and
see if you can find
  your card in there.  This (with cardmgr) is what
looks after loading
  and unloading modules for pcmcia/cardbus cards.

I'm not sure what the entry in /etc/pcmcia/config
should look like.  I did find a NetGear card 
in there bet its a different one and cardctl ident
gives:

#cardctl ident
Socket 0:
no product info available
Socket 1:
no product info available

So I don't think it even recognizes that there's a
card in the slot.  I don't have another card to 
try so I don't know if this is the card or my setup.

Any thoughts.  Like I said I'm going to try a newer
kernel and see what that does.

This almost certainly means that you did not rerun "lilo" after editing
the lilo.conf file.

Re: detecting and loading modules

2000-10-31 Thread Paul Schulz

Drew,

Is it the Xircom Realport card? (There are several known problems here..)
What version of the kernel are you running? (The module was renamed -> 2.4.x)

For PCMCIA, have a look at /etc/pcmcia/config, and see if you can find
your card in there.  This (with cardmgr) is what looks after loading
and unloading modules for pcmcia/cardbus cards.

   lsmod displays loaded modules.

   modprobe -k tulip  will load the tulip module (though pcmcia-cs should
   handle this itself).

Have you tried make-kpkg yet ? It builds a kernel-image in *.deb format.

  Drew,

No, it's a NetGear 510c.  It says on the box that it's
Linux compatable and I even got the 
customer service guys to reply to my e-mail with some
helpful advice.  (that's where I found 
out that it needs the tulip.o module)


  What version of the kernel are you running? (The
module was renamed -> 2.4.x)

I'm running a 2.0.xx.  That could very well be the
problem so right now I'm trying to roll a 
custom kernel.



  For PCMCIA, have a look at /etc/pcmcia/config, and
see if you can find
  your card in there.  This (with cardmgr) is what
looks after loading
  and unloading modules for pcmcia/cardbus cards.

I'm not sure what the entry in /etc/pcmcia/config
should look like.  I did find a NetGear card 
in there bet its a different one and cardctl ident
gives:

#cardctl ident
Socket 0:
no product info available
Socket 1:
no product info available

So I don't think it even recognizes that there's a
card in the slot.  I don't have another card to 
try so I don't know if this is the card or my setup.

Any thoughts.  Like I said I'm going to try a newer
kernel and see what that does.

later,

InterMezzo and Debian

2000-10-31 Thread Mark Phillips

Is anyone using InterMezzo with Debian?  It looks like quite a good
system --- especially for connecting laptops with desktops.

Are there plans to provide a Debian package for InterMezzo?

Cheers,

Mark.

rolling a kernel for a different machine

2000-10-31 Thread Andrew Dixon

Hi All,
I'm trying to roll a kernel for my laptop using my
desktop machine.  I tried the usual:
 
#make config
#make dep
#make clean
#make bzdisk

and as I expected the boot disk does not work.  Can
anyone give me any pointers on rolling a kernel on one
machine for an other?

thanks,
Andy

Your boot disk has to point to the root partition of the system it's
booting on.  What failure or error messages are you getting from the
laptop when you try to boot?

detecting and loading modules

2000-10-31 Thread Andrew Dixon

HI All,
I was trying to figure out how to look at which
modules I am running and if one is not running force
it to load.  

The module that I am specifically interested in is the
tulip.o module for my pcmcia card.

thanks,
Andy

everything is smooth through the partition check and
then I get:

Invalid session number or type of track
Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on
03:01

seems like your on the right track.  Any idea how to
fix it?
