Hello Maxim,
Thanks for your advice and your humour.
I had already done the unpack.bat, but Michele has just made me
noticed that there is no way to install in UMSDOS on a NT machine.
The CD is a good idea, but I can't boot any CD, on any computer. And
the BIOS is locked, ... Moreover, having all the compilers will not
help me, since I don't have any disk space (except in read-only
access).
Now I am trying to access my home directory, which is on a Novell
Netware server. So I need ipx.o, then ncpfs.o, then the utilities
which come with ncpfs (ncpmount, ncpumount, ...).
I've tried to insmod ipx.o, found on the muLinux site, but there are
unresolved symbols.
I've found ncpfs.o (for a 2.0.36) on the trinux site (another mini
distrution), and I can load it. So that is OK.
For the ncpfs utilities, I can manage, I suppose.
Since that ipx module was compiled for the right kernel, and there
are no dependencies for that, why can't I load it ?
Guillaume
