Hi,
the rtl8139 driver is a pci based driver. This driver needs more registry
keys. A half year ago, I've used this registry entries for a realtec 8139
based nic:
It doesn't work with the current cvs. The
start and type values are
possible
also incorrect. The value "9" from the key "SlotNumber" is a hex
value
which
must point to the correct pci slot. The best way to get all this
informations is a NT 4.0 or W2K installation.
It doesn't work anymore because I changed the registry layout to match
the one of W2K. There must be a "Driver" value under the Enum key
pointing to "{4D36E972-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}\xxxx" (where xxxx is
unique number for the network adapter; for now 0000 is used for PCnet
and 0001 for NE2K, but later this should be assigned by class
installer). The "Parameters" key (without subkeys!) is moved to
"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E972-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}\xxxx"
and "Linkage" key is moved to
"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E972-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}\xxxx\Linkage".
Finally the SlotNumber needn't be changed because NDIS uses the value
obtained from PCI bus driver.
An other problem is the loading of the real
ne2000.sys driver. This is
not a
boot load driver but ros trys to load it like a boot load driver (after
pci.sys).
Every enumerated driver is first tried to load when it's found
(typically before \SystemRoot exists) and then retried after
"\SystemRoot" is created. It's not really optimal, but it works.
Ros trys it a second time after loading ndis. The
start value of
ne2000 is 4, this means do not load. if I change this value to 3,
driver is
loaded at the second point successful, but it doesn't find a nic.
It's intentionally marked as DON'T LOAD in the registry because it would
be loaded on every computer even when no NE2K card is present. The only
way to address it is to get ISAPNP bus driver working, but that will
still not help us on non-PNP ISA...

Filip

The RTL8139.SYS driver does not load as indicated in the attached debug
traces .
The hivesys entry is attached also with the nic driver.
May be the hivesys entry is not correct . I would be pleased if you can
have a look (or somebody else) ?
Best regards
Gerard
