Bad line in pci.ids; e100 for 4.x anyone?
I've got an unsupported setup here and I've got some questions. I've got 4.0 running after finding some drivers and customizing the pci.ids and simple.map files but of course, although its running, its not without issues.
First Question[Unless someone has a confirmed working e100 driver that'll get a couple of Intel 82559 (8086:1229) running I won't even bark up that tree.] I tried a couple of e100 drivers but they didn't seem to work so I figured I would double check my work before picking up some supported equipment. I noticed that `lspci` no longer produced the normal output. Instead I get a line at the top that says:
Code:
line 4211 improperly formatted
parsing problem: vendors 228 nvendor 1906 devices 2273 ndevid 7299
Failed to build PCI tables
Followed by a list of the vendor & device ID's and classes in column format, omitting the names and types of the devices like it normally does. I checked my pci.id file in my oem.tgz (attached) and couldn't find anything wrong with the offending line. However on the ESXi server itself, there was an entry in /etc/vmware/pci.ids at line 4211 with just "7645". I can't find "7645" in the my customized oem.tgz. Once I fixed the file in /etc lspci functioned properly.
What happened there?
How can I permanently fix this?
Second QuestionWhen I go to Customize System > Configure Management Network > Network Adapters it just takes me back to the 'home screen'? Is it because I've got some e100 drivers I'm trying to load that aren't initializing properly? Or is it because I've got only 1 NIC?
