Kory... I went through the same thing about a week ago.
Assuming that you are using the floppy-disk version of Dachstein rather than Dachstein-CD, the problem exists because the Dachstein-small kernel on the floppy doesn't have serial support rolled into it. Download one of the available Dachstein-normal kernels from Charles' web site and that should take care of it. I used WINIMAGE to transfer this to my floppy disk image, then renamed it "linux". Also refer to Charles' serial "how-to" for additional details if you are still stuck. Good Luck! FROM: Kory KrofftDATE: 03/26/2002 15:44:59SUBJECT: [Leaf-user] Serial question I know I am forgetting something but I can't get my new Dachstein install working with the serial port. I decided to replace my beta version with a new DS boot image. Everything works but I can't get my serial port to terminal working. It worked with my old disk but not now. I loaded serial.o in /lib/modules I setup the getty line in /etc/inittab (uncommented and set T0:....ttyS0 115200... added ttyS0 to securetty ran insmod serial added serial to the list of modules in /etc/modules Now "T0" keeps respawning and will not work. What have I missed? The system is a pentium 200 with two intel eepro100 cards. Is there a way to check the irq assigned to the NICs?
