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: 2.4.20 / 2.5.63
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/messgaes

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 Linux kernel source, and extract it to /usr/src.
40 Because NinjaSCSI driver requiers some SCSI header files in Linux kernel
42 I recomend rebuilding your kernel. This eliminate some versioning problem.
44 $ tar -zxvf linux-x.x.x.tar.gz
49 [3] Extract this driver's archive somewhere, and edit Makefile, then do make.
50 $ tar -zxvf nsp_cs-x.x.tar.gz
56 [4] Copy nsp_cs.o to suitable plase, like /lib/modules/<Kernel version>/pcmcia/ .
58 [5] Add these lines to /etc/pcmcia/config .
59 If you yse pcmcia-cs-3.1.8 or later, we can use "nsp_cs.conf" file.
60 So, you don't need to edit file. Just copy to /etc/pcmcia/ .

92 -------------------------------------
94 [6] Start (or restart) pcmcia-cs.
95 # /etc/rc.d/rc.pcmcia start (BSD style)
97 # /etc/init.d/pcmcia start (SYSV style)
104 If you eject card when doing some operation for your SCSI device or suspend
105 your computer, you encount some *BAD* error like disk crash.
106 It works good when I using this driver right way. But I'm not guarantee
107 your data. Please backup your data when you use this driver.
110 Many bugs in this driver. Be careful!
113 Please send me some reports(bug reports etc..) of this software.
114 When you send report, please tell me these or more.
117 your SCSI device name(hard drive, CD-ROM, etc...)
