Hi there.
Hopefully, somebody here can advise me...
The system in question is a Toshiba T2110 laptop, i486dx4/75 processor, 12M of RAM, and a PCMCIA network adapter that is NE2000 compatible. The 800M HD is partitioned as follows:
===8<=== CUT ===>8=== % fdisk -l /dev/hda
Disk /dev/hda: 32 heads, 63 sectors, 787 cylinders Units = cylinders of 2016 * 512 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/hda1 1 305 307408+ b Win95 FAT32 /dev/hda2 * 306 316 11088 83 Linux native /dev/hda3 317 367 51408 82 Linux swap /dev/hda4 368 787 423360 83 Linux native % ===8<=== CUT ===>8===
They're mounted as /win95 - /boot - (swap) - / respectively - I only discovered by accident that a FAT32 partition can be mounted as type VFAT and work reliably for both read and write...and that's in RedHat Linux 5.2 upgraded to full kernel 2.0.36 as well...
Anyway, under Win95, I can power the machine down and start it up again, and the network will continue to work after doing so, but under Linux, I have to take the whole PCMCIA system down and up again to get it to work, although everything else works fine...
From dmesg I note...
===8<=== CUT ===>8=== Linux PCMCIA Card Services 3.0.5 kernel build: 2.0.36 unknown options: [pci] [cardbus] Intel PCIC probe: Intel i82365sl B step at port 0x3e0 ofs 0x00, 2 sockets host opts [0]: none host opts [1]: none ISA irqs (scanned) = 3,4,5,7,9,10,11,12,15 status change on irq 15 cs: IO port probe 0x1000-0x17ff: excluding 0x1000-0x107f 0x10a0-0x10c7 0x10d0-0x10ef 0x11f0-0x11ff 0x13f0-0x13f7 0x1400-0x147f 0x14a0-0x14c7 0x14d0-0x14ef 0x15f0-0x15ff 0x17f0-0x17f7 cs: IO port probe 0x0100-0x04ff: excluding 0x1f8-0x1ff 0x378-0x37f 0x3b8-0x3e7 0x400-0x4c7 0x4d0-0x4ef cs: IO port probe 0xa00-0xaff: clean cs: memory probe 0x0d0000-0x0dffff: clean eth0: NE2000 Compatible: port 0x300, irq 3, hw addr 00:40:95:40:42:88 ===8<=== CUT ===>8===
Any advice appreciated...
Best wishes from Riley.
