2 WorkBiT NinjaSCSI-3/32Bi driver for Linux
5 This is Workbit corp.'s(http://www.workbit.co.jp/) NinjaSCSI-3
8 2. My Linux environment
9 Linux kernel: 2.4.7 / 2.2.19
12 PC card: I-O data PCSC-F (NinjaSCSI-3)
13 I-O data CBSC-II in 16 bit mode (NinjaSCSI-32Bi)
14 SCSI device: I-O data CDPS-PX24 (CD-ROM drive)
15 Media Intelligent MMO-640GT (Optical disk drive)
18 [1] Check your PC card is true "NinjaSCSI-3" card.
19 If you installed pcmcia-cs already, pcmcia reports your card as UNKNOWN
20 card, and write ["WBT", "NinjaSCSI-3", "R1.0"] or some other string to
21 your console or log file.
22 You can also use "cardctl" program (this program is in pcmcia-cs source
23 code) to get more info.
25 # cat /var/log/messages

28 Jan 2 03:45:06 lindberg cardmgr[78]: product info: "WBT", "NinjaSCSI-3", "R1.0"
32 no product info available
34 product info: "IO DATA", "CBSC16 ", "1"
37 [2] Get the Linux kernel source, and extract it to /usr/src.
38 Because the NinjaSCSI driver requires some SCSI header files in Linux
39 kernel source, I recommend rebuilding your kernel; this eliminates
40 some versioning problems.
42 $ tar -zxvf linux-x.x.x.tar.gz
47 [3] If you use this driver with Kernel 2.2, unpack pcmcia-cs in some directory
48 and make & install. This driver requires the pcmcia-cs header file.
50 $ tar zxvf cs-pcmcia-cs-3.x.x.tar.gz
53 [4] Extract this driver's archive somewhere, and edit Makefile, then do make.
54 $ tar -zxvf nsp_cs-x.x.tar.gz
60 [5] Copy nsp_cs.ko to suitable place, like /lib/modules/<Kernel version>/pcmcia/ .
62 [6] Add these lines to /etc/pcmcia/config .
63 If you use pcmcia-cs-3.1.8 or later, we can use "nsp_cs.conf" file.
64 So, you don't need to edit file. Just copy to /etc/pcmcia/ .

98 [7] Start (or restart) pcmcia-cs.
99 # /etc/rc.d/rc.pcmcia start (BSD style)
101 # /etc/init.d/pcmcia start (SYSV style)
108 If you eject card when doing some operation for your SCSI device or suspend
109 your computer, you encount some *BAD* error like disk crash.
110 It works good when I using this driver right way. But I'm not guarantee
111 your data. Please backup your data when you use this driver.
114 In 2.4 kernel, you can't use 640MB Optical disk. This error comes from
115 high level SCSI driver.
118 Please send me some reports(bug reports etc..) of this software.
119 When you send report, please tell me these or more.
122 your SCSI device name(hard drive, CD-ROM, etc...)
