Ethernet strangeness on kernel 2.4.20... and more
Hello all, Thanks for the suggestion to compile the driver into the kernel - however this has not seemed to work. I'm currently using a 3c905-TX PCI card, and I'm having the same problem as before. Should I be using the onboard ethernet (is it supported? If so, what is it? - Compaq XP1000 is the machine in question). I also have a couple of other odd things going on. One is that since I upgraded to kernel 2.4.20 from 2.4.19, I get this in the dmesg: Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 9b90fffc0026475a klogd(177): Oops 0 pc = [] ra = [] ps = Not tainted v0 = fc001eee7ed0 t0 = 62732f646e756f73 t1 = 30304d5f t2 = t3 = 00c0 t4 = 646f t5 = 00c8 t6 = 0020 t7 = fc001eee4000 s0 = fffc00264000 s1 = fffc002647e8 s2 = 0001200197a8 s3 = 0004 s4 = 0005 s5 = s6 = 000120017348 a0 = fc001eee7f08 a1 = 9b90fffc00264752 a2 = a3 = a4 = a5 = 000a t8 = t9 = fc8253dc t10= 0008 t11= pv = at = fc825414 gp = fca0b770 sp = fc001eee7e98 Trace:fc810c80 Code: 47ff041f 47ff041f c3c3 47ff041f 47ff041f 47ff041f <2c710008> 42211411 I assume this is really bad. Should I use a different kernel? What are people using? Another, probably silly question is - how do I make it boot up with aboot automatically, without having to choose a kernel image? Right now it boots into interactive mode, and I'd much rather have it just boot kernel image 0 automatically. Thanks much! -Josiah
