Intel 965 howto Was: Easy upgrade path from beta5 to stable 5?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Well,
I have written that onboard network controller doesn't work... It's not
true anymore.
A small howto:
1) add pci network card
2) install with "linux all-generic-ide pci=nommconf"
3) update to the latest distro kernel 2.6.9-42.0.3
4) get
http://heanet.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/e1000/e1000-7.3.20.tar.gz
5) do have kernel-headers, rpmbuild ... etc.
6) rpmbuild -ta e1000-7.3.20.tar.gz
7) rpm -ihv /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/e1000-7.3.20-1.i386.rpm
8) boot, remove pci eth, boot :o)

Regards,
David

Drew,
Centos 4.4 works on 965 (I'm talking about Intel DG965OT). Kernel
options are "all-generic-ide pci=nommconf". Set sata controller to AHCI
mode in BIOS. Onboard network card is not recognized at all. So mobo
works, but just buy another board, at least for now.
David
