[cbm4linux-users] module loading problem

[Mikko <mik...@ra...>]

Hi!=20

Could someone help me with my problem, please!
When I try to load cbm module with insmod i get "init_module: Device or=20
resource busy"? Seems like port is reserved???

I have Mandrake Linux 9.0 and XM1541 cable. I tried file transfers in DOS=
 with=20
Star Commander and I had no trouble transfering my disks to images. But I=
=20
wouldn't like to boot to DOS just do some file transfers.

Thanks for any help!!!

Mikko.

ps. I've attached here some console outputs:
