Christian,
I applied the following patch and it works! apt-get update that is, there is
no sshd on this freshly installed system yet...
I also changed this line to have 4 underscores at the beginning:
{ 0xec940559, "____alloc_ei_netdev" },
Where does that appear? Can't find it in drivers/net anywhere.
It's in zorro8390.mod.c, but *.mod.c is listed in .gitignore, so it must be
a remnant of my experiments with git and older branches. I wonder why it has
been compiled, though, I did not change any of the Makefiles.
it does not show up in git diff, so I am not sure if this is a leftover from
a previous checkout, or if it is also needed. And if it is needed, if it
should be two underscores or four or none, and if so why or why not...
Looking at the other drivers, there does not seem to be a lot of consistency?
____alloc_ei_netdev is the function defined in lib8390.c which is
called by the individual drivers from their respective
__alloc_ei_netdev().
The only symbol exported by zorro8390.c should be __alloc_ei_netdev -
if your above change was done in some symbol exports file it should
probably have been left at __alloc_ei_netdev.
I did none of that, but to be sure, I should build another kernel with
Geert's patch on a clean checkout.
I installed a few packages, rebooted to check if the network is set up
automatically (it is!), and installed more packages. Now I am upgrading
some more and I see reasonable download speeds: 140kB/s. However, I also saw
this flying by:
eth0: Interrupted while interrupts are masked! isr=0x0 imr=0x0.
Three times in about one minute. The whole system is a bit more responsive
now (I an log in on a second console without a long delay). I could not log
in with ssh yet, though I get a little bit further than yesterday, there is
some response already from the remote system.
