The 7i43 loads firmware at startup.
1) Make sure that you have the firmware you need in /lib/firmware/hm2/7i43
2) Work out the base address of the card (or you can try to use Linux
index numbers)
3) Open a terminal and:
loadrt hostmot2
loadrt hm2_7i43 ioaddr={Insert io address or index}
config="firmware=hm2/7i43/{insert firmware}"
show pin
If it all looks good so far, you can try waking the card up:
loadrt threads
addf hm2_7i43.0.read thread1
addf hm2_7i43.0.write thread1
start
And I think you should see a heartbeat led on the card.
