I'm running SuSE5.3/2.0.35, a DTTO MAX PRO with an Ditto Dash
Accelerator DX (ISA plug and pray). Perhaps you should use your pnp
card,too.

After a RTFM ;-) you'll have do to the following things:

1. /sbin/pnpdump > /etc/isapnp.conf
2. Edit the /etc/isapnp.conf (my card is configured to:
        (IO 0 (BASE 0x0200))
        (INT 0 (IRQ 3 (MODE +E)))
        (DMA 0 (CHANNEL 0))
   This varies from system to system.
3. Edit the MCONFIG: Here are my settings (only the important lines):
        FDC_OPT =       -DCONFIG_FT_FDC_BASE_$(82078_DEV)=0x200 \
                        -DCONFIG_FT_FDC_IRQ_$(82078_DEV)=3      \
                        -DCONFIG_FT_FDC_DMA_$(82078_DEV)=0      \
                        -DCONFIG_FT_NR_BUFFERS=3                \
                        -DCONFIG_FT_INT_$(82078_DEV)=0
   You have to set your parameters found in /etc/isapnp.conf.
4. Edit the ./modules/insert. Edit the isapnp line like "isapnp
   /etc/isapnp.conf" and choose a max. transfer rate for your DITTO. I 
   just let it work with 3000. I'm going to tune it a little bit 
   somewhen. Put a "#" before the lines "insmod ./trakker.o" and
   "insmod ./bpck-fdc.o".
5. To be sure that your devices are created correctly, change to 
   ./scripts and simply run MAKEDEV.ftape. Let it overwrite your 
   existing devices.
6. Do a . insert (you have to use the "." and a space), watch out for 
   your /var/log/messages and use your DITTO e.g. with tar.

Hope, it'll work.

Carsten
