Hi All,
What do you folks do when the hardware dept. people do not provide a PCI bus,
and everything in linux is predicated upon having a pci bus?
No pci -> no hotplug -> no udev -> no usb.
Do you hardwire all the drivers and devices?
This is what I have done so far, all the dev are hardcoded in a ram disk,
mounted to /ram, with symlink cleaning it allup to normal paths. I am curious,
becauseof course all the docs are written by boobs using a desktop systm, and
often include the phrase 'and so it just works.' Which of course is useless to
someone trying to 'understand how it works'.
Also need depmod to work in a cross-compile env too, right now it fails...
Thanks for listening....
