| Issue |
I get the following from 'nettrap query'
Net.ether905 -pd800 -i255 -I0 -l1 &
netmap -f
But when I run 'nettrap start' the kernel crashes and I get the following output:
Version 425.J Sep 09 1999 .....
kernel fault Idt 270 fault d+14
(pid = 47, '//1/bin/Net')

| Solution |
The parameter -i255 is the hint - it means that the PCI-BIOS did not assign an interrupt to the card (or nettrap was unable to determine which one). First, you could try to start the driver *without* using nettrap like this:
# Net.ether905 -v &
(-v to get more info, the other parameters are really redundant)
If the system still crashes, you should check your BIOS settings (interrupt assignment for PCI should be auto, plug&play OS off, interrupts only reserved for Legacy/ISA when really necessary.) |
