 Posted: Fri Apr 19, 2002 10:21 am Post subject: Kernel PCMCIA |
 |
|
I've tried to install gentoo on my laptop with a PCMCIA network card that's only supported by the kernel drivers and not by the pcmcia-cs drivers.
Several new PCMCIA cards work by using the PCI hotplug interface so I guess other people will run in the same problems as I did.
To get gentoo installed anyway I created a new iso file with kernel (2.4.19) PCMCIA support, all possible modules (network and others) and pcmcia-cs compiled against it.
BTW: I've added a minimal vim version also, can't live without vi 
If somebody is interested I'll put the iso file up for download. |

Do you still have it or could you make it available again? I'm having the same exact problem and can't find another work around.
thanks in advance |

Nope, I don't have it anymore.
But it's pretty easy do create a new one.
You just have to compile a kernel and include all PCMCIA stuff.
Then you rebuild the PCMCIA tools and replace all files on the original iso with the new kernel, modules and PCMCIA tools.
Reburn the iso and install.
You can do the above stuff in a chroot environment. That's how I did it anyway |

| If your problem is yenta_socket, I already posted an alternate solution here. |
