I unplugged the ISA card to insert a scanner card for about 3 weeks. After re-inserting the network card and booting with a new current kernel (in the meantime we had ELF migration and CAM ...) this error showed up. I used the ezsetup tool to make sure, that the card has the old values I configured into the card and the kernel. ezsetup v1.05 tells me: 8013EPC I/O address 280 IRQ 10 RAM Size 16 K RAM Base Address 0D0000 Add Wait states yes Netw conn BNC Rom Size Disabled I also tried dos> ezsetup /factory dos> ezsetup /default and then again to change the values to 280/10/D0000 No way, same kernel bootup message.... My kernel config: device ed0 at isa? port 0x280 net irq 10 iomem 0xd0000 vector edintr Well ... three possibilities: - a) card isn't ok but: ezsetup seems to work -> NO - b) misconfigured but: checked config ... is ok -> NO - c) driver problems possible ... Perhaps I should boot with a generic kernel and try to see differences. > The error message even tells you what you've done wrong. heh... I don't understand you ... there is no config option for shared memory ... and I configured the base address well.
