Please read the comments in the insert script in the ftape/modules
directory of the ftape source code.
First, you HAVE to have a DASH card. This card is Plug and Play, so you
(Second:) need the pnp utils. You don't FIND the settings, you SET them
using the pnp utils. The pnp tools have very good documentation, but
here's the short version:
# pnpdump >/etc/pnp.conf
# vi /etc/pnpconf
- - make changes to set ONE DMA, ONE IRQ, and ONE BASE address - -
# vi modules/insert
- - make changes to run pnp with the /etc/pnp.conf file
# run the insert script
All should be well at this point. Please note that you may need to play
around with the PnP settings on your system.
