juan,
i got prety much the same errors the first few times i
tried. Alessandro is right about the memory allocation.
You need to allocate memory for DMA. For example, if you
had 128MB RAM, you could allocate memory for DMA at the lilo
prompt by typing"
linux mem=125MB
This would allocate 3mb for DMA, which is more than enough
(i think). Replace "linux" with whatever you labelled your
linux installation, "linux" is default. what the command
does is tell the kernal to only use 125mb of ram, and leave
the rest unnallocated. Later on, when DMA is needed, the
extra RAM is allocated for DMA.
