In my firewall based on Debian I have a 3Com Etherlink III card. I have
the
drivers for that card build in the kernel, not as modules (why using
modules if a
module is constantly loaded).Next I have written a script to activate
the card
(/etc/init.d/isapnp):
#!/bin/sh
#
# isapnp initialize isa-pnp devices
#
PATH="/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin"
case "$1" in
start|restart)
if [ -r /etc/isapnp.conf ]
then
if [ ! -e /proc/isapnp ]
then
if [ -e /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/pnp/isa-pnp.o ]
then
modprobe isa-pnp
result=$?
if [ $result -ne 0 ]
then
exit 2
fi
else
exit 1
fi
fi
cat /etc/isapnp.conf >/proc/isapnp
fi
;;
stop)
;;
esac
And the configuration in /etc/isapnp.conf:
card 0 TCM5095
dev 0 TCM5095
port 0 0x220
irq 0 5
activate
Read kernel-source-'version'/Documentation/isapnp.txt for the options
Finaly I have created a symlink from /etc/rcS.d/S15isapnp to
../init.d/isapnp
Be sure that there are no IRQ's or Port conflicts, or you will find
difficulties
activating cards.
