Hi everyone, thanks in advance for taking a look at this and helping me come up to speed on FBSD ...
I have a OC-3139 in my Dell Deskpro 133, 64MB memory, am running FBSD 4.1 Release, have built a new kernel which finds the card on boot with
"oltr0: adapter self-test complete (status=0)"
So far, so good.
BUT, afterwards, however, I get the following message repeatedy interrupting whatever I am doing -
"oltr0: ring insert (4Mbps - TPK)"
Am I correct in assuming the card has not inserted itself into the network ? (me, the master of the obvious ...)
I know the card is not broken because it will attach to the network when I boot from a DOS disk and load ODI drivers to attach to our Novell IPX network.
Do I need to enable IPX protocol ?
If I ping the gateway, I get
"TRlldTransmitFrame returned 1" and
"ping: sendto: host is down"
which doesn't suprise me, considering.
Do I need to create a new kernel with some of the LINT options, i.e.
OLTR_NO_BULLSEYE_MAC
OLTR_NO_HAWKEYE_MAC
OLTR_NO_TMS_MAC ?
Also, as a side issue, what are these specifying and under what circumstances would one need to use them ?
Thanks again for the help , I need it.
