Hi.
I have one of these: http://www.sys-media.it/cv860a.html
- which I've succeeded in setting up as a dual WAN router.
It boots off a 64MB CF, and runs a self-compiled 2.4.20 kernel with Bering as well as Julian Anastasov's 'dgd' patches applied.
Everything works nicely and it performs great, routing for some 80+ clients :)
Now, I'd like to put the logs on the attached harddisk, so as to preserve them in case of powerfailures etc...
The mobo has a VIA vt82c686b ide-controller, so consequently I have
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_VIA82CXXX=y in the kernel config
-which I would've thought should cover it. Obviously I was mistaken,
the menuconfig program does not enable the via82cxxxx just like that. It requires Generic PCI bus-master DMA support which you may or may not have set.
This is from the VIA docs....
(2) When running "make xconfig ", "make menuconfig " or "make config " to configure the kernel, select ATA/IDE/MFM/RLL Support/IDE and then ATA and ATAPI Block devices. Next select 'y' to enable Generic PCI bus-master DMA support and VIA82CXXX chipset support. Moreover, if your system uses VIA's C3 CPU, select [K6/K6-II/K6-III] and disable [Symmetric multi-processing support] under [Processor type and features]. Finally, save and exit the kernel configuration.
