Hi all,
I want to use an ASUS P2B-DS dual P-III mainboard with a MD2202-D32 DoC
device for LinuxBIOS. In the moment I test it with a 2.6.4 kernel.
This board uses a 440bx chip set.
I hot swapped the BIOS Flash chip and the DoC while the board was
powered
on and Linux was running.
When I modprobe nftl and docprobe I get the following messages in
/var/log/messages:
kernel: NFTL driver: nftlcore.c $Revision: 1.94 $, nftlmount.c
$Revision: 1.34 $
kernel: Possible DiskOnChip with unknown ChipID FF found at 0xfffc8000
kernel: Possible DiskOnChip with unknown ChipID FF found at 0xfffca000
[...]
kernel: Possible DiskOnChip with unknown ChipID FF found at 0xfffec000
kernel: Possible DiskOnChip with unknown ChipID FF found at 0xfffee000
kernel: No recognized DiskOnChip devices found
No my question now is how to initialize the 440bx to get the DoC
recognized.
Here is the output of lspci. Everything except the VGA controller is
onboard.
