2 | WorkBiT NinjaSCSI-3/32Bi driver for Linux | |
3 | ||
4 | 1. Comment | |
5 | This is Workbit corp.'s(http://www.workbit.co.jp/) NinjaSCSI-3 | |
1da177e4 LT |
6 | for Linux. |
7 | ||
8 | 2. My Linux environment | |
9 | Linux kernel: 2.4.7 / 2.2.19 | |
10 | pcmcia-cs: 3.1.27 | |
11 | gcc: gcc-2.95.4 | |
12 | PC card: I-O data PCSC-F (NinjaSCSI-3) | |
13 | I-O data CBSC-II in 16 bit mode (NinjaSCSI-32Bi) | |
14 | SCSI device: I-O data CDPS-PX24 (CD-ROM drive) | |
15 | Media Intelligent MMO-640GT (Optical disk drive) | |
16 | ||
17 | 3. Install | |
18 | [1] Check your PC card is true "NinjaSCSI-3" card. | |
19 | If you installed pcmcia-cs already, pcmcia reports your card as UNKNOWN | |
20 | card, and write ["WBT", "NinjaSCSI-3", "R1.0"] or some other string to | |
21 | your console or log file. | |
22 | You can also use "cardctl" program (this program is in pcmcia-cs source | |
23 | code) to get more info. | |

37 | [2] Get the Linux kernel source, and extract it to /usr/src. |
38 | Because the NinjaSCSI driver requires some SCSI header files in Linux | |
39 | kernel source, I recommend rebuilding your kernel; this eliminates | |
40 | some versioning problems. | |
1da177e4 LT |
41 | $ cd /usr/src |
42 | $ tar -zxvf linux-x.x.x.tar.gz | |
43 | $ cd linux | |
44 | $ make config | |
45 | ... | |
46 | ||

47 | [3] If you use this driver with Kernel 2.2, unpack pcmcia-cs in some directory |
48 | and make & install. This driver requires the pcmcia-cs header file. | |
1da177e4 LT |
49 | $ cd /usr/src |
50 | $ tar zxvf cs-pcmcia-cs-3.x.x.tar.gz | |
51 | ... | |
52 | ||
53 | [4] Extract this driver's archive somewhere, and edit Makefile, then do make. | |
54 | $ tar -zxvf nsp_cs-x.x.tar.gz | |
55 | $ cd nsp_cs-x.x | |
56 | $ emacs Makefile | |
57 | ... | |
58 | $ make | |
59 | ||
992caacf | 60 | [5] Copy nsp_cs.ko to suitable place, like /lib/modules/<Kernel version>/pcmcia/ . |
1da177e4 LT |
61 | |
62 | [6] Add these lines to /etc/pcmcia/config . | |
992caacf | 63 | If you use pcmcia-cs-3.1.8 or later, we can use "nsp_cs.conf" file. |
1da177e4 LT |
64 | So, you don't need to edit file. Just copy to /etc/pcmcia/ . |

107 | 5. Caution | |
108 | If you eject card when doing some operation for your SCSI device or suspend | |
109 | your computer, you encount some *BAD* error like disk crash. | |
110 | It works good when I using this driver right way. But I'm not guarantee | |
111 | your data. Please backup your data when you use this driver. | |
112 | ||
113 | 6. Known Bugs | |
114 | In 2.4 kernel, you can't use 640MB Optical disk. This error comes from | |
115 | high level SCSI driver. | |
116 | ||
117 | 7. Testing | |
118 | Please send me some reports(bug reports etc..) of this software. | |
119 | When you send report, please tell me these or more. | |
