Hi all, I've managed to get my linux router to boot from a hard drive in a Dell Powerapp Web 100 (IDE, simpler than SCSI). This machine has dual on-board EtherExpress Pro 100's, which come up just fine using the floppy I made with Coyote.
My problem comes into play when changing things to boot from the IDE drive. I syslinux'ed the HD, copied the linux-2.2.19-3-LEAF-normal-IDE.zImage.upx kernel to the HD from a floppy and renamed it, and copied everything (except ldlinux.sys and linux) from the floppy to the hard disk. Unfortunately, neither of the network interfaces will start, and all modules complain loudly about not being the same version as the kernel. I realized after looking at messages during boot that none of the ip modules (and the eepro100.o module) had version numbers that matched the kernel version, so as a test, I downloaded the eepro100.o module from http://lrp.steinkuehler.net/files/kernels/2.2.19-3-normal/ (same place I got the IDE-enabled kernel) , put it on a floppy, copied it to /lib/modules, and backed up the boot image. I can still boot, but now when the network moduled try to load, I get eepro100 - /lib/modules/eepro100.o: unresolved symbol acpi_set_pwr_state /lib/modules/eepro100.o: unresolved symbol pci_drv_unregister /lib/modules/eepro100.o: unresolved symbol pci_drv_register Anybody have any pointers on eepro100 modules and IDE-enabled kernels?
