I have a legacy laptop- 486, 20 MB RAM. I would like to have it as dumb terminal for some purpose. I have two PCMCIA network cards available for this purpose, one is Xircom Credit Card Adapter IIps and 3com 3c589 both of whose drivers are there in 2.4, 2.6 I'm using 2.4 kernel because with 2.6 memory overflows and it freezes just during kernel decompression. The kernel command line I pass is: rw root=/dev/nfs nfsroot=192.168.1.254:/nfsroot ip=dhcp where 192.168.1.254 is my box's ip address. IP Autoconfiguration has been enabled. The problem is, kernel says: "IP-Config: No devices to configure" You can take a look at the .config file: http://paste.pocoo.org/show/243107/ Any guesses where I'm missing? For now there's no initrd with it. I believe it is not required if kernel's IP-Config is able to take either of those cards as ethernet and send DHCP request on the same. (I insert only one card at a time). -- Regards, Nilesh Govindarajan Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/nilesh.gr Twitter: http://twitter.com/nileshgr Website: http://www.itech7.com VPS Hosting: http://www.itech7.com/a/vps -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-embedded" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
