These are kernels only in this directory. They are not images. Do not rawrite or dd them to floppies. If you need to use one of these, rawrite or dd the boot0000.img in the 1213 directory. That image is and MS-DOS formatted floppy (can be accessed as UMSDOS or MSDOS under Linux). Then just 'copy' the kernel out of this directory that you need to the top level of the floppy and name it "linux". For example, under DOS: rawrite boot0000.img as per the normal instructions cd to this directory copy 2940.ker a:\linux That's for the 2940 image. Use your own there. Also note that a:\linux is "a", colon, backslash, "linux". If you're using a Linux system you can copy the file using mcopy or the msdos filesystem. To do this on a standard Red Hat system for example, you need to do the following: dd boot0000.img as per the normal instructions cd to this directory mcopy 2940.ker a:linux **************** The 2940.ker is an image created with the AIC patch you can find in this directory. It *should* work with the 2940U/UW. It should also work better for regular 2940s than any other images we have. It has drivers for: o IDE CD-ROMs o SLIP/PPP o All SCSI devices (tape, cdrom, etc, no other controllers, however) o IPX (for those *other* guys :-) o All non-serial mice o Parallel Printer o No ethernet cards o No LUN probing If your 2940 still exhibits problems, you might try: o Disable sync notiation for all devices o Change the DMA transfer rate for all devices to 5.0 M/s o Disable disconnection/reconnection for all devices All of those should be changed in the BIOS setup for the card. This has proven to NOT be necessary in most cases. 2940-509.ker is the same as above, with 3C509 support. **************** The rest of the images are: 1542-bare.ker Kernel with Adaptec 1542 SCSI and no other SCSI 2740-new.ker Adaptec 2740 kernel with new driver AMD-SCSI.ker Kernel with patch for AMD SCSI controller EATA-bare.ker Supports DPT SCSI adapters PAS16.ker Support for Pro Audio Spectrum SCSI only tulip-NCR.ker Kernel with latest tulip ethernet driver and NCR SCSI old-IDE.ker Kernel with old IDE driver (same as boot0000 except IDE driver)
