Hi.
Can somebody tell me what I'm missing here please ? I've just started with
LinuxBios after seeing it at the LBW workshop ten days ago, and I can't seem
to get even to stage 1....
I have a PCChips M810LR motherboard, and I've fitted a ZIF socket to swap the
flash Bios for a Millennium MD-2800-D08 DoC device.
I've compiled a 2.4.19 kernel and modules (although I'm not sure I've done
this correctly - I can't find any instructions on which MTD options I need to
make this setup work), and rebooted with the new kernel.
I've built the various tools I seem to need for the SiS-based motherboard.
When I do this:
1. Remove Flash Bios
2. Insert DoC (brand new device, just purchased)
3. flash_on
4. modprobe doc2001
5. modprobe docprobe
6. dmesg
I get this:

No recognised DiskOnChip devices found
I *am* inserting the DoC the right way round :-)
My /dev/mtd0 is a char device with major/minor node 90,0
Can someone suggest which I'm doing wrong, what I've missed out, or where I
can look for instructions to get it right ?
Thanks,
Antony.
