Re: [SLE] install via plip

Well I did the following

rmmod parport_probe rmmod parport_pc rmmod parport

insmod parport 0x378,7 insmod plip

and it installed

I then ran

ifconfig plip0 one pointopoint two up

route add two

Route shows it there, ifconfig shows the interlace, when I ping two I get no response When yast on two tries to mount the CD-ROM one it also times out

It seemed so easy when I set up PLIP on the 486 under 5.1, now this upgrade is starting to annoy me, and it's keeping me from inn and majordomo.

This sounds like the problem I'm having upgrading my

...

machine from 5.2 to 6.3. After dying several times it will no longer read the CD-ROM even thought the sbpcd modules are loaded.

I'm now trying to d o the install via plip and am having trouble setting up the parallel port

From dmesg I get the following:

ttyS00 at 0x03f8 (irq = 4) is a 16550A parport0: PC-style at 0x378 [SPP,ECP,ECPPS2] parport0: no IEEE-1284 device present. plip: parport0 has no IRQ. plip: no devices registered plip: parport0 has no IRQ. plip: no devices registered plip: parport0 has no IRQ. plip: no devices registered plip: parport0 has no IRQ. plip: no devices registered plip: parport0 has no IRQ. plip: no devices registered plip: parport0 has no IRQ. plip: no devices registered plip: parport0 has no IRQ. plip: no devices registered plip: parport0 has no IRQ. plip: no devices registered plip: parport0 has no IRQ. plip: no devices registered plip: parport0 has no IRQ. plip: no devices registered plip: parport0 has no IRQ. plip: no devices registered VFS: Disk change detected on device fd(2,0)

Hi everyone,

Ok I tried with the 6.3 boot disk and the modules disk to install via plip interface to my laptop. Contrary to the 6.4 installation 6.3 asks for the plip parameters and the configuration which I enter as follows

io=0x378 irq=7 ifconfig plip0 192.168.217.3 pointopoint 192.168.217.2 netmask 255.255.255.255 up

but then when I want to do the installation via NFS it say no network modules loaded. Also when I ping the laptop from the desktop nope it does not exists.

Is there any other way I should try to install it (ie. with floopies maybe)

Not necesarry since I have the original package

which already has the

into the kernel (actually PLIP support and/or support for your interface card).

That is the problem point what ever I do nothing happens. I choose plip and I expect the plip config parameters box to appear but nothing happens.

But possibly you will fail. Yeap I do on the otherhand is there a way to over come
