[Trinux-news] New ISO with PCMCIA Support

[Matthew F. <mf...@ci...>]

Folks,

Just released another ISO. This has experimental support for PCMCIA (when
has trinux *not* been experiment) NICs.

I've successfully tested this on the following cards:

3Com 3C574TX
3Com 3C589D
Xircom CBE2-100 (tulip)
Xircom Realport (Cardbus) RBEM56G-100 (tulip)

I was unable to get the non-carbus Realport (xirc2ps) to work

All of these were tested on a Thinkpad T22. I fixed the annoying filename
problem that affected the previous ISOs. I need to specify -R -J (for Rock
Ridge and Joliet) for mkisofs. I also cleaned up some of the annoying
debugging messages from the linuxrc.

See http://trinux.sf.net/release or http://www.io.com/~mdfranz/boot/ (not
sure which is slower)

BTW, I've finally got the old trinux.org DNS under control. If anybody
wants to host a mirror site and wants a location.trinux.org site let me
know.

Next, on to wireless :) and updating the documentation for all the changes
:(. For those that are interested in helping out with or learning to use
wireless tools, I've just created a new trinux-wireless email list.

Thanks to all the folks who provided feedback on the last ISO.
