Hi all,
I am trying to get my 486 linux box (with a SPP) to recognise my orb drive.
I have done the following to install it.
/sbin/insmod paride
/sbin/insmod on26
/sbin/insmod pd verbose=2
and get the following error message
Using /lib/modules/2.2.10/misc/pd.o
/lib/modules/2.2.10/misc/pd.o: init_module: Device or resource busy
dmesg reports the following:
parport0: PC-style at 0x378 [SPP]
paride: version 1.04 installed
paride: on26 registered as protocol 0

pda: on26: port 0x26c, mode 1, test=(255,255)
pda: Autoprobe failed
pd: no valid drive found
What does this mean?
I've looked though the FAQ and mailing list archives, but have been unable
to find a solution.
Also is there a way to do all of this automatically when mounting the drive
(ie using conf.modules). Currently when I try to do mount /mnt/orb I get the
following message
mount: the kernel does not recognize /dev/pda5 as a block device
(maybe `insmod driver'?)
Thanks for your help
