2 WorkBiT NinjaSCSI-3/32Bi driver for Linux
5 This is Workbit corp.'s(http://www.workbit.co.jp/) NinjaSCSI-3
6 (http://www.workbit.co.jp/ts/z_nj3r.html) and NinjaSCSI-32Bi
7 (http://www.workbit.co.jp/ts/z_njsc32bi.html) PCMCIA card driver module
10 2. My Linux environment
11 Linux kernel: 2.4.7 / 2.2.19
14 PC card: I-O data PCSC-F (NinjaSCSI-3)
15 I-O data CBSC-II in 16 bit mode (NinjaSCSI-32Bi)
16 SCSI device: I-O data CDPS-PX24 (CD-ROM drive)
17 Media Intelligent MMO-640GT (Optical disk drive)
20 [1] Check your PC card is true "NinjaSCSI-3" card.
21 If you installed pcmcia-cs already, pcmcia reports your card as UNKNOWN
22 card, and write ["WBT", "NinjaSCSI-3", "R1.0"] or some other string to
23 your console or log file.
24 You can also use "cardctl" program (this program is in pcmcia-cs source
25 code) to get more info.
27 # cat /var/log/messages

30 Jan 2 03:45:06 lindberg cardmgr[78]: product info: "WBT", "NinjaSCSI-3", "R1.0"
34 no product info available
36 product info: "IO DATA", "CBSC16 ", "1"
39 [2] Get the Linux kernel source, and extract it to /usr/src.
40 Because the NinjaSCSI driver requires some SCSI header files in Linux
41 kernel source, I recommend rebuilding your kernel; this eliminates
42 some versioning problems.
44 $ tar -zxvf linux-x.x.x.tar.gz
49 [3] If you use this driver with Kernel 2.2, unpack pcmcia-cs in some directory
50 and make & install. This driver requires the pcmcia-cs header file.
52 $ tar zxvf cs-pcmcia-cs-3.x.x.tar.gz
55 [4] Extract this driver's archive somewhere, and edit Makefile, then do make.
56 $ tar -zxvf nsp_cs-x.x.tar.gz
62 [5] Copy nsp_cs.ko to suitable place, like /lib/modules/<Kernel version>/pcmcia/ .
64 [6] Add these lines to /etc/pcmcia/config .
65 If you use pcmcia-cs-3.1.8 or later, we can use "nsp_cs.conf" file.
66 So, you don't need to edit file. Just copy to /etc/pcmcia/ .

100 [7] Start (or restart) pcmcia-cs.
101 # /etc/rc.d/rc.pcmcia start (BSD style)
103 # /etc/init.d/pcmcia start (SYSV style)
110 If you eject card when doing some operation for your SCSI device or suspend
111 your computer, you encount some *BAD* error like disk crash.
112 It works good when I using this driver right way. But I'm not guarantee
113 your data. Please backup your data when you use this driver.
116 In 2.4 kernel, you can't use 640MB Optical disk. This error comes from
117 high level SCSI driver.
120 Please send me some reports(bug reports etc..) of this software.
121 When you send report, please tell me these or more.
124 your SCSI device name(hard drive, CD-ROM, etc...)
