Hi all,
I have updated my Linux Kernel to the latest. I am on Debian 64bit
3.15.5. I issue the following Kernel command line, and the vme_user
module seems to load correctly, however the vme bus is neither mounted
on /dev nor /proc.
I was earlier using a 3.2 debian 32bit and managed to mount the vme
bus by following the exact same procedure of rebuilding the kernel
with vme_user module. Any help is appreciated. Here is what I see on
dmesg.
[ 0.000000] Kernel command line:
BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-3.15.5-vme
root=UUID=4cdc2e84-9fbc-471c-9eb4-fde8f0b1ce96 ro vme_user.bus=0
vme_tsi148.err_chk=1 quiet

Cheers!
