Hmmm, I forgot to set IRQ 10 to 'Legacy/ISA'.
I'll try again this evening.
Status:
Apparently the computer system is not an issue.
Slackware 7.0 install, kernel 2.2.13.
NIC=Macromate MN220PTC in NE2000 mode, io=0x2a0, irq=10, ISA
Kernel make config: http://gelm.net/config.txt
modules.conf (IIRC)=
#
alias net-pf-4 off
alias net-pf-5 off
alias ne io=0x2a0 irq=10 # This existing configuration works with
windows98
#
messages: http://gelm.net/messages.txt
syslog: http://gelm.net/syslog.txt
Problem:
modprobe ne
can't locate module ne
...
I tried to use an explicit path as (Richard?) suggested. I found 4 files
named ne.o.
Substitute 'explicit path to' with /lib/linux-2.2.13.0/net/ne.o or
something like that,
I don't recall exactly. I tried them all and all returned:
modprobe 'explicit path to'/ne.o
can't locate module 'explicit path to'/ne.o
I don't think setting irq 10 to Legacy/ISA will cure the above, though.
:-|
I think that I will start over with new boot and root diskettes and
reformat and re-install
and compile my NE2000 NIC in the 'make config'.
:-(
