Problem to install Linux on EISA Computer
I have a Siemens Nixdorf PC5E
This machine have an EISA architecture whit two onboard
scsi controllers ( NCR57C710 in 2 chips )
When i try a kernel with NCR53C7XX , it doesn't works
When i try a kernel with EATA_DMA , it doesn't works
When i try a kernel whit EATA_Generic , it doesn't works
I will try now with the last kernel ( 2.1.71 ) , peraps it will be good ?
If someone have any idea ....

ASKER
I can't redefine the io-port of the scsi card, and if I look into the kernel source, i can't find the io-port used by Linux.
All most you can change the IO of your NCR-SCSI with a jumper on the board or in the EISA-setup
