- Hello!
-
- I have a problem to get my Ethernetcard to work.
-
- Equipment:
-
- * A4000/040
- * GG2 Bus+ board
- * 16 BIT Ethernet Card
- * (Dual Serial Board)
- * (FastLane Z3 Card)
- * AmiTCP4.0
-
- A have installed AmiTCP and choosen the alternative GG2-bus+Ethernetcard in
- the installation of AmiTCP.
-
- The Startnet-file looks like this:
-
- --------8<----------------8<----------------8<----------------8<--------
- .key IPADDRESS
- .bra {
- .ket }
- .def IPADDRESS 130.239.124.147
-
- ; log in
- echo
- echo login: laz
- AmiTCP:bin/login -f laz
- AmiTCP:bin/umask 022
- AmiTCP:AmiTCP
- WaitForPort AMITCP
- ; Configure loop-back device
- AmiTCP:bin/ifconfig lo0 localhost
- ; Assure that ENV:Sana2 exists
- if not exists ENV:Sana2
- makedir ENV:Sana2
- endif
- ; Create gg_ne2000 configuration file
- echo "IRQ=3 IOADDR=0x300 " >ENV:Sana2/gg_ne2000.config_0
- ; Configure gg_ne2000
- AmiTCP:bin/ifconfig gg_ne2000 {IPADDRESS} netmask 255.255.255.0
- ; Add IP address entry for this host
- rx "address AMITCP; 'ADD HOST {IPADDRESS} pedgr1d-408.sn.umu.se '"
- ; Add route to this host
- AmiTCP:bin/route add {IPADDRESS} localhost
- ; Add route to the default gateway
- AmiTCP:bin/route add default 130.239.124.1
- setenv HOSTNAME `AmiTCP:bin/hostname`
- Assign TCP: Exists > NIL:
- IF Warn
- Mount TCP: from AmiTCP:devs/Inet-Mountlist
- EndIf
- ; Start the internet `super server'
- run AmiTCP:bin/inetd
- --------8<----------------8<----------------8<----------------8<--------
- (the IRQ and IOADDR is correct!)
-
- Then I start AmiTCP this is what happens:

- This is written in a window by the name "AMITCPIP Log", and it says:

- The errormessage appaers when ifconfig is run.
-
- In Amitcp:db/interfaces exists the device with:

- Path "sys:GG2 Bus+/Bin" ADD
- ;END GG2 Bus+
- --------8<----------------8<----------------8<----------------8<--------
-
- I have tried both with and without cashes and with 030 and 040 CPU,
- but always the same result. :-(
-
- The ethernetcard is garanteed to be NE2000-compatible and I have tried
- several others ethernetcards, but no success.
-
- I have also tried to put the card in different "Card-places" but it did
- not help either.
-
- I hope that somebody can help me to get it working.
