Also no idea... I\'v changed settings in bios (auto -> irq specifed
by me), but it doesn\'t work.
That is easy:
3 Options:
1) Look through your Linux-reported PCI-devices.
you can use lspci to generate a nice overview.
In Kernel 2.6 /proc seems to hold no human-readable information
about
PCI. in 2.4 use cat to read out /proc:
$ cat /proc/pci
or something like this.
2) PCI arranges interrupts via some algorithm that depends on some
position information. This means it makes a difference if your NIC is
in slot 1 (or A) or some other. You can influence this sometimes a
bit obscure process in your BIOS if you can change the Interrupt
assignment. That may resolve Interrupt sharing situations.
3) Remove unnecessary hardware. You can't use sound cards and card
readers with GNU Mach anyway. If you can't remove it, try to disable
it, e.g. in BIOS. Usually you'd leave your graphic card an your NIC.
If you think you need more, add one part at a time and try to boot.
You'll find out which configuration works or not in a acceptable
finite number of steps which makes it an algorithm :-)
