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 | |
6 | (http://www.workbit.co.jp/ts/z_nj3r.html) and NinjaSCSI-32Bi | |
7 | (http://www.workbit.co.jp/ts/z_njsc32bi.html) PCMCIA card driver module | |
8 | for Linux. | |
9 | ||
10 | 2. My Linux environment | |
11 | Linux kernel: 2.4.7 / 2.2.19 | |
12 | pcmcia-cs: 3.1.27 | |
13 | gcc: gcc-2.95.4 | |
14 | PC card: I-O data PCSC-F (NinjaSCSI-3) | |
15 | I-O data CBSC-II in 16 bit mode (NinjaSCSI-32Bi) | |
16 | SCSI device: I-O data CDPS-PX24 (CD-ROM drive) | |
17 | Media Intelligent MMO-640GT (Optical disk drive) | |
18 | ||
19 | 3. Install | |
20 | [1] Check your PC card is true "NinjaSCSI-3" card. | |
21 | If you installed pcmcia-cs already, pcmcia reports your card as UNKNOWN | |
22 | card, and write ["WBT", "NinjaSCSI-3", "R1.0"] or some other string to | |
23 | your console or log file. | |
24 | You can also use "cardctl" program (this program is in pcmcia-cs source | |
25 | code) to get more info. | |
26 | ||

30 | Jan 2 03:45:06 lindberg cardmgr[78]: product info: "WBT", "NinjaSCSI-3", "R1.0" | |
31 | ... | |
32 | # cardctl ident | |
33 | Socket 0: | |
34 | no product info available | |
35 | Socket 1: | |
36 | product info: "IO DATA", "CBSC16 ", "1" | |

39 | [2] Get Linux kernel source, and extract it to /usr/src. | |
40 | Because NinjaSCSI driver requiers some SCSI header files in Linux kernel | |
41 | source. | |
42 | I recomend rebuilding your kernel. This eliminate some versioning problem. | |
43 | $ cd /usr/src | |
44 | $ tar -zxvf linux-x.x.x.tar.gz | |
45 | $ cd linux | |
46 | $ make config | |
47 | ... | |
48 | ||
49 | [3] If you use this driver with Kernel 2.2, Unpack pcmcia-cs in some directory | |
50 | and make & install. This driver requies pcmcia-cs header file. | |
51 | $ cd /usr/src | |
52 | $ tar zxvf cs-pcmcia-cs-3.x.x.tar.gz | |
53 | ... | |
54 | ||
55 | [4] Extract this driver's archive somewhere, and edit Makefile, then do make. | |
56 | $ tar -zxvf nsp_cs-x.x.tar.gz | |
57 | $ cd nsp_cs-x.x | |
58 | $ emacs Makefile | |
59 | ... | |
60 | $ make | |
61 | ||
62 | [5] Copy nsp_cs.o to suitable plase, like /lib/modules/<Kernel version>/pcmcia/ . | |
63 | ||
64 | [6] Add these lines to /etc/pcmcia/config . | |
65 | If you yse pcmcia-cs-3.1.8 or later, we can use "nsp_cs.conf" file. | |
66 | So, you don't need to edit file. Just copy to /etc/pcmcia/ . | |

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