My setup is V5.2, and everything has installed OK, except the 3Com 3C509
card. The system has failed to pick it up. I recently spotted the
suggestion of performing a direct scan using modprobe:
modprobe 3c509 io=0x300,irq=10
The resulting message was:
/lib/modules/2.0.33/net/3c509.o: symbol for parameter io not found
This error message also appears on the bootup screen, and has appeared
consistently from the initial install.
I've checked the obvious - the system has a DOS partition, so I've
booted from DOS and configured the card using the 3Com utilities, both
before and after the install. It runs through the hardware tests OK. The
card is attached to a Warp Server LAN, but obviously it hasn't been
integrated software-wise into the network. I'm pretty certain that the
hardware is not defective.
Anyone have suggestions as to the next move.
