SuSE Linux: Version 6.4
This article refers to an older version of SuSE Linux.
Therefore some of the informations given in this article may
be outdated or the article may contain stale links.
Kernel: Version 2.2.14
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/6.4/disks/laptop
and an image for the module disk (if necessary; the PCMCIA modules are
already on the laptop-bootdisk) can be found at:
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/6.4/disks/modules
Copy the disk image to a floppy disk.
Under DOS you can do that using the program rawrite, which can be found in the directory /dosutils at CD1:
rawrite \..Pfad..\laptop
Under Linux use:
dd if=/..Pfad../laptop of=/dev/fd0 bs=8k
After the installation has been completed, replace the installed kernel, as described in the support-database article: "PCMCIA-IDE-Geräte werden nicht erkannt", http://sdb.suse.de/en/html/findeisen_pcmcia_ide_patch_64.html.
