This new version is, for the moment, only available at
linux.wauug.org:
/pub/roudier/ncrBsd2Linux-1.17-src.tar.gz
It has been tested under 2.0.28 only.
Changes since 1.16e:
--------------------
- Controller LED support.
Only works with LED pin wired to GPIO_FETCHN, so probably with
all boards using SMDS BIOS.
This option can be enabled only if CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL is set.
- Assume clock doubler for 875 chip when clock frequency measurement
result is 40 MHz. May help when some old stuff as SDMS BIOS 3.0
or some old driver has broken the normal BIOS settings.
- Add wide negotiation control from boot setup command.
May be usefull with systems using a 875 based board connected to
a wide device through a 50 pins to 68 pins converter.
- Add a "boot fail safe option" to the boot setup command line.
- Rewrite the "reset_command" routine for Linux.
The new code seems to behave correctly. I've move GBs of data
with simulated timeouts and resets every 30 seconds with no
system hang.
- Change some variables used by the script from u_long to u_int32.
- Remove some useless code.
Gerard.
