| 4 | WorkBiT NinjaSCSI-3/32Bi driver for Linux | |
| 5 | ========================================= | |
| 6 | ||
| 7 | 1. Comment | |
| 8 | ========== | |
| 9 | ||
| 10 | This is Workbit corp.'s(http://www.workbit.co.jp/) NinjaSCSI-3 | |
| 11 | for Linux. | |
| 12 | ||
| 13 | 2. My Linux environment | |
| 14 | ======================= | |
| 15 | ||
| 16 | :Linux kernel: 2.4.7 / 2.2.19 | |
| 17 | :pcmcia-cs: 3.1.27 | |
| 18 | :gcc: gcc-2.95.4 | |
| 19 | :PC card: I-O data PCSC-F (NinjaSCSI-3), | |
| 20 | I-O data CBSC-II in 16 bit mode (NinjaSCSI-32Bi) | |
| 21 | :SCSI device: I-O data CDPS-PX24 (CD-ROM drive), | |
| 22 | Media Intelligent MMO-640GT (Optical disk drive) | |
| 23 | ||
| 24 | 3. Install | |
| 25 | ========== | |
| 26 | ||
| 27 | (a) Check your PC card is true "NinjaSCSI-3" card. | |
| 28 | ||
| 29 | If you installed pcmcia-cs already, pcmcia reports your card as UNKNOWN | |
| 30 | card, and write ["WBT", "NinjaSCSI-3", "R1.0"] or some other string to | |
| 31 | your console or log file. | |
| 32 | ||
| 33 | You can also use "cardctl" program (this program is in pcmcia-cs source | |
| 34 | code) to get more info. | |
| 35 | ||
| 36 | :: | |
| 37 | ||
| 38 | # cat /var/log/messages | |
| 39 | ... | |
| 40 | Jan 2 03:45:06 lindberg cardmgr[78]: unsupported card in socket 1 | |
| 41 | Jan 2 03:45:06 lindberg cardmgr[78]: product info: "WBT", "NinjaSCSI-3", "R1.0" | |
| 42 | ... | |
| 43 | # cardctl ident | |
| 44 | Socket 0: | |
| 45 | no product info available | |
| 46 | Socket 1: | |
| 47 | product info: "IO DATA", "CBSC16 ", "1" | |
| 48 | ||
| 49 | ||
| 50 | (b) Get the Linux kernel source, and extract it to /usr/src. | |
| 51 | Because the NinjaSCSI driver requires some SCSI header files in Linux | |
| 52 | kernel source, I recommend rebuilding your kernel; this eliminates | |
| 53 | some versioning problems. | |
| 54 | ||
| 55 | :: | |
| 56 | ||
| 57 | $ cd /usr/src | |
| 58 | $ tar -zxvf linux-x.x.x.tar.gz | |
| 59 | $ cd linux | |
| 60 | $ make config | |
| 61 | ... | |
| 62 | ||
| 63 | (c) If you use this driver with Kernel 2.2, unpack pcmcia-cs in some directory | |
| 64 | and make & install. This driver requires the pcmcia-cs header file. | |
| 65 | ||
| 66 | :: | |
| 67 | ||
| 68 | $ cd /usr/src | |
| 69 | $ tar zxvf cs-pcmcia-cs-3.x.x.tar.gz | |
| 70 | ... | |
| 71 | ||
| 72 | (d) Extract this driver's archive somewhere, and edit Makefile, then do make:: | |
| 73 | ||
| 74 | $ tar -zxvf nsp_cs-x.x.tar.gz | |
| 75 | $ cd nsp_cs-x.x | |
| 76 | $ emacs Makefile | |
| 77 | ... | |
| 78 | $ make | |
| 79 | ||
| 80 | (e) Copy nsp_cs.ko to suitable place, like /lib/modules/<Kernel version>/pcmcia/ . | |
| 81 | ||
| 82 | (f) Add these lines to /etc/pcmcia/config . | |
| 83 | ||
| 84 | If you use pcmcia-cs-3.1.8 or later, we can use "nsp_cs.conf" file. | |
| 85 | So, you don't need to edit file. Just copy to /etc/pcmcia/ . | |

| 128 | 4. History | |
| 129 | ========== | |
| 130 | ||
| 131 | See README.nin_cs . | |
| 132 | ||
| 133 | 5. Caution | |
| 134 | ========== | |
| 135 | ||
| 136 | If you eject card when doing some operation for your SCSI device or suspend | |
| 137 | your computer, you encount some *BAD* error like disk crash. | |
| 138 | ||
| 139 | It works good when I using this driver right way. But I'm not guarantee | |
| 140 | your data. Please backup your data when you use this driver. | |
| 141 | ||
| 142 | 6. Known Bugs | |
| 143 | ============= | |
| 144 | ||
| 145 | In 2.4 kernel, you can't use 640MB Optical disk. This error comes from | |
| 146 | high level SCSI driver. | |
| 147 | ||
| 148 | 7. Testing | |
| 149 | ========== | |
| 150 | ||
| 151 | Please send me some reports(bug reports etc..) of this software. | |
| 152 | When you send report, please tell me these or more. | |
| 153 | ||
| 154 | - card name | |
| 155 | - kernel version | |
| 156 | - your SCSI device name(hard drive, CD-ROM, etc...) | |
