Hi,
I have the following problem:
I am trying to install a DEC Fast EtherWORKS PCI 10/100.
System: DEC Alpha 500/333.
Operating Sys: OSF1 V4.0b (revision 564)
Firmware: 6.4
I have physically installed the card. 'show config' recognizes both net
cards, the original at:
BUS 00 slot 06: DECchip 21040 Network controller ewa0.0.0.6.0
and the new one at:
BUS 00 slot 12: DE500-BA Network controller ewb.0.0.0.12.0
The card, lights-up the '100 Mb/s orange LED' and the 'Link status LED'
blinks - as if it has traffic. But no net activity on the machine...
I have correctly performed the kernel rebuild procedure, (I know I did
it right, because I also added a second SCSI controller at the same
time and the system picked it up immediately) but the DE500-BA was not
detected and nowhere to be found in the temprary kernel. Upon boot-up
no indication of a 'tu1'. Only 'tu0' appears.
Has anyone seen this? Is there a patch or a firmware upgrade I need to
do to get the card to be recognized by genvmunix? Should I just
manually add the entry:
controller tu1 at pci0 slot 12
in the kernel (/sys/conf/<SYSNAME>) and rebuild?
Following I have included my kernel file section. Any help will be
appreciated. I will summarize.
Thanks!
