Network device support is also a minefield. The hp ethernet driver HP 10/100VG PCLAN Western Digital WD80 scsi driver AHA152X/2825 all build but cause load failure. These should be disallowed as well. I would have mailed the changes, but a more methodical testing needed to be done to find all the guilty parties. Some sort of grep for isa would probably do the trick for the first pass. drivers/net/net.o: In function `hp100_start_xmit': drivers/net/net.o(.text+0x18fe2): undefined reference to `isa_memcpy_toio' drivers/net/net.o(.text+0x19011): undefined reference to `isa_memset_io' drivers/net/net.o: In function `hp100_rx': drivers/net/net.o(.text+0x196b2): undefined reference to `isa_readl' drivers/net/net.o(.text+0x198d1): undefined reference to `isa_memcpy_fromio' drivers/net/net.o: In function `wd_get_8390_hdr': drivers/net/net.o(.text+0x1df62): undefined reference to `isa_readl' drivers/net/net.o: In function `wd_block_input': drivers/net/net.o(.text+0x1e022): undefined reference to `isa_memcpy_fromio' drivers/net/net.o(.text+0x1e052): undefined reference to `isa_memcpy_fromio' drivers/net/net.o(.text+0x1e072): undefined reference to `isa_eth_io_copy_and_sum' drivers/net/net.o: In function `wd_block_output': drivers/net/net.o(.text+0x1e232): undefined reference to `isa_memcpy_toio' drivers/net/net.o(.text+0x1e282): undefined reference to `isa_memcpy_toio' ld: final link failed: Bad value ------------ Lastly, the default .config file that comes on the ftp site allows simulator code only and I have a live box. When will this change?
