Thank Eric, now it works. I inserted the pdc202xx_old.o module in initrd according to your instruction and the hard drive is now found.
One strange thing: At first the drive was labeled hde in the boot messages but there were no devices hde in /dev, only hda, hdb, hdc, hdd (gap) hdg. I moved the drive cable to the cards other ide connector and the drive was now labeld hdg in the boot messages and could be mounted as /dev/hdg1. Why is there no /dev/hde? /Lars --- Eric Spakman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> skrev: > Hello Lars, > > >Hello list, (Bering-uClibc 3.x beta 1) > > > >I have a Promise PDC20267 card installed.
