The patched kernel referenced on your site is shown as not available. Do you know of another source? I searched the site to no avail. Thanks for the help! >>> "Black, Richard" <Richard.Black@COMPAQ.com> 06/20/00 06:16PM >>> Prosignia VS, NCR53c710, Original Smart controller. I have sucessfully accessed devices on the NCR53c710, the Original Smart controller, an add in NE2000 card, all added in memory. Build the boot disk, put a kernel (with the sim710 driver built in statically) on the boot disk, boot, pass the parameters at the boot prompt (sim710=addr:0x8000,irq:15). Then you should be able to do a normal install. Check my web site under sim710 at http://www.geocities.com/rlcomp_1999 Sincerely, Richard Black -----Original Message----- From: Bob Kayser [mailto:rkayser@VHA.COM] Sent: Monday, June 19, 2000 3:40 PM To: compaqandlinux@cpqlin.van-dijk.net Subject: [compaqandlinux] Installing on a Prosignia Vs I am trying to install Linux on a Prosignia VS with an NCR53c710 chip. I have downloaded the driver, but wonder whether anyone has done a similar install, since I am not sure how to configure the machine prior to install, and we have had no luck to date in getting any version of Linux to recognize the drives. Thanks in advance for any insight. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: compaqandlinux-unsubscribe@cpqlin.van-dijk.net For additional commands, e-mail: compaqandlinux-help@cpqlin.van-dijk.net
