Hi all,
my box has a 3Com 3c509B etherlink III ISA-PnP ethernet card. It works
perfectly with all the 2.2 kernels I've tried (2.2.19-5mdk used
currently). However, when trying to boot 2.4 kernels, the network doesn't
work and after a few seconds I get tons of dmesgs:
eth0: Infinite loop in interrupt, status 2001.
Trying to figure out the difference between both, I have:
- kernel 22
eth0: 3c509 at 0x300 tag 1, 10baseT port, address 00 60 97 c5 c9 47, IRQ 11.
3c509.c:1.16 (2.2) 2/3/98 [EMAIL PROTECTED]
eth0: Setting Rx mode to 1 addresses.
- kernel 24
eth0: 3c5x9 at 0x220, 10baseT port, address 00 60 97 45 c9 47, IRQ 11.
3c509.c:1.18 12Mar2001 [EMAIL PROTECTED]

eth1: 3c5x9 at 0x300, 10baseT port, address 00 60 97 c5 c9 47, IRQ 11.

0x220 is the address of my sb board!
I have in my /etc/modules.conf alias eth0 3c509, and if I put alias eth0
3c509 io=0x300 irq=11, it doesn't change anything.
Any idea?
Everything else seems to work quite well (cooker rsync of yesterday).
Cheers,
