Hi everyone,
I was running a custom 2.4 kernel on my laptop (Dell Inspiron 4000; P3 800Mhz)
and recently decided to upgrade it to the most recent 2.6 kernel (2.6.16.14
from www.kernel.org). It compiled successfully, however after rebooting with
the new kernel, I realized my laptop didn't have any PCMCIA support. Checking
the options again, I realized that in the 2.6 kernel, the option for PCMCIA
support was off by default. I thought "no problem, I'll just enable it and
recompile". So under the heading "Bus options (PCI, PCMCIA, EISA, MCA, ISA)",
I enabled PCCard (PCMCIA / CardBus) support which included:
16-bit PCMCIA support
32-bit CardBus support
i82092 compatible bridge support
i82365 compatible bridge support
Databook TCIC host bridge support
I began recompiling and some time later I got the error:
ccl : lib/crc16.mod.c : Input/output error
Does anybody know why it happened? I'm guessing it's probably because of the
PCCard support option that I enabled, but I don't see why.
Thanks,
-Glen
