Hello
I have an old notebook: Compaq Armada 100s and I was tryig to install OpenBSD to
use it as a neat diag. computer. After being unable to use the PCMCIA D-link
DFE-670tdx ethernet adapter a while ago (after 3.7 release) I tried two linux
distros (ubuntu and slackware) both working fine (and the PCMCIA card worked),
actualy there was win98 before and worked fine also.
After releasing of 3.8 I tried OpenBSD again without success, but I played a bit
longer with.
When booting from floppy there is a 70% chance that the kernel recognizes the
PCMCIA card (ne3) but after trying to use it I got device timeout.
I tried more than 10 times 3.8 bsd.rd without kernel being able to even
recognize the card. After installing the system from CD without initializing
the network, the default generic kernel has the same problem, I tried it many
times. Seems like (tried generic and rd approx 30times together) only the
floppy install kernel has a chance to recognize the pcmcia card, or maybe I am
wrong, and it's a hardware issue. Anyway as I mentioned above ubuntu for
example (3 tries ;o) )
has no problem with this combination.
I linked two dmesg outputs one from generic kernel boot and the another with the
floppy boot with the card recognized.
Is there a way to make this work?
Thank you all, great job.
Peter Huncar
