To eliminate the problem, boot with the -c flag and eliminate the wdc0

device, or compile a custom kernel.

Q: My system can not find my Intel EtherExpress 16 card.
|

|
||||
A: You must set your Intel EtherExpress 16 card to be memory mapped at
|
||||
address 0xD0000, and set the amount of mapped memory to 32K using
|
||||
the Intel supplied softset.exe program.

|

Q: When installing on an EISA HP Netserver, my on-board AIC-7xxx
|
||||
SCSI controller isn't detected.
|
||||
|
||||
A: This is a known problem, and will hopefully be fixed in the future.
|
||||
In order to get your system installed at all, boot with the -c
|
||||
option into UserConfig, but _don't_ use the pretty visual mode but
|
||||
the plain old CLI mode. Type
|
||||
|
||||
eisa 12
|
||||
quit
|
||||
|
||||
there at the prompt. (Instead of `quit', you might also type
|
||||
`visual', and continue the rest of the configuration session in
|
||||
visual mode.) Don't forget to install the kernel source code
|
||||
distribution, you will need to install a custom kernel on those
|
||||
systems.
|
||||
|
||||
Refer to the FAQ topic 3.16 for an explanation of the problem, and
|
||||
for how to continue. Remember that you can find the FAQ on your
|
||||
local system in /usr/share/doc/FAQ, provided you have installed the
|
||||
`doc' distribution.
