Hello,
I know it's foolish to force-load an older module into a newer kernel,
but what other choice do I have? :)
The module for the Promise FastTrack 376 is ft3xx.o, and the latest
kernel Promise has released it for is 2.4.18-14. Force-loading it into
a running kernel seems to work okay, but putting it into an initrd and
trying to actually BOOT with it doesn't work because it won't force load
Basically, here's my question: Is there any way to force load a module
in the initrd, or am I doomed to wait until they release a new driver?
Or, is there a way to port a binary driver to another kernel? Google
has offered me no help, nor have the man pages. So I'm hoping one of
you out there have the know-how to tell me it's not worth trying. hehe
Thanks!
