[comp.sys.sun] Need help with VME-to-Multibus adapter on Sparcstation 370

hpk@vax135.att.com (Howard P Katseff) (06/07/90)

We have a home-brew periperal on a Multibus card that works perfectly on
our Sun 3/260 with the Sun VME-to-Multibus adapter.  We are having trouble
getting it to work on our Sparcstation 370.  By my reading of the Sun
documents, no changes were needed in the kernel configuration file or on
the VME-to-Multibus adapter on the Sparcstation.  When we try to run the
kernel with our driver on the Sparcstation, it panics at boot time with a
"Data Fault" in the probe routine.

I would like to hear from anybody who has gotten a Multibus peripheral to
work on a Sparcstation or who can shed some light on our problem.
