[Etherboot-developers] 5.1 will not boot on 486

[Timothy L. <tl...@ro...>]

Hi

I reported this issue some time ago and it looks like it is still there.  I tried both the 3c515 driver and the 3c509 driver, but neither even get to the stage of looking for the card.  They both freeze hard at:

.000041.0000 done
R

It PC in question is a Prolinea 4/25 with an Evergreen 133 processor upgrade.

I realize that it is old and somewhat unique, unfortunately, it is also where I worked on the sundance driver and the only PC where I can do any work on the ISAPNP support for the 3c515.

Any thoughts on how to track down this issue?

No time for extensive testing, but just a couple of things.  I get an error:

segment [00092800,00094000) does not fit in any memory region

I am assuming that this is because the ltsp kernel is not tagged with the
correct version of mknbi.  Is that correct?

Also, on my old 486, the 3c515 driver with isa_pnp defined stops at:

.000041.0000 done
R

I will try another card (3c509) in that PC and I will try the 3c515 in
another PC when I get a chance.
