Crash with IntelPRO/1000 MT Desktop Adapter type (8254OEM) - Oracle Virtual Box #350

During automatic installation, Minix correctly detects the network adapter, but crashes after reboot.

Works with PCnet-Fast III (Am73C973)

Hello,

Please also attach VBox log, which is mentioned in guru mediation dialog.

I suspect triple fault, but let's confirm that.

mk1nz commented 7 months ago

VBox.log

Please find attached file

Any chance you could also share your .vbox configuration file? Minix tends to be a bit picky about some of the settings, especially under the system tab.

the-grue commented 7 months ago

Never mind. See closed issue #17 Looks like a one line code fix.

Hi @mk1nz I'm attaching a patched version of the e1000 service. I did the following to get it working:

take a snapshot copy the file to your vm (I temporarily set the network driver to PCnet-FAST III) extract the file and validate the cksum in the image below copy the executable to /service/e1000, this will clobber the bad service. run the netconf command and change your network adapter to the Intel PRO/1000, set dhcp, etc. once that is completed, shutdown the vm and close the window change your network adapter to Intel PRO/1000 MT start the vm and it should now be working with your GB ethernet.
