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!

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?

Thank you,

Kory Krofft
