Installing IDE and ethernet drivers for nForce 430 Chipset

[jw123]

I installed ClarkConnect 4.1 on a Compaq Presario sr5130nx with Athlon 3800+, GeForce 6150SE and nForce 430 chipsets.The motherboard is an Asus M2N68-LA. ClarkConnect (CC) is based on Centos 4 which is based on RHEL4. The kernel is an older one, 2.6.9.42 I believe. Should I be using the deprecated nForce drivers?

I have two problems with the drivers built into the kernel.

1. The cdrom and main hd are sata which are working fine with the nv_sata driver in CC. The motherboard has an IDE interface to which I attached another hd. This drive works, but hdparm shows it to be 3 - 5 MB/sec. DMA is not enabled. I tried to enable it but got the msg:
hdparm -d1 /dev/hda

/dev/hda:
setting using_dma to 1 (on)
HDIO_SET_DMA failed: Operation not permitted
using_dma = 0 (off)

I attached results of lspci at the end of this.

I read suggestions for other distros that the amd74xx driver would fix this problem so I tried to compile and install the amd74xx.c driver from nvidia

A. Ran
apt-get update
apt-get install cc-devel kernel-sourcecode kernel-devel

makefile:
obj-m:=amd74xx.o
KDIR := /lib/modules/$(shell uname -r)/build
PWD := $(shell pwd)

default:
$(MAKE) -C $(KDIR) SUBDIRS=$(PWD) modules

I get:
make -C /lib/modules/2.6.9-42.ccsmp/build SUBDIRS=/root/amd74 modules
make: *** /lib/modules/2.6.9-42.ccsmp/build: No such file or directory. Stop.
make: *** [default] Error 2

I see that the build directory does not exist.

I tried uninstalled and reinstalled cc-devel, kernel-sourcecode, kernel-devel, but the build directory is not created. Creating an empty build directory does not help either. Any ideas?

Any other ideas how to get dma working on this interface?

uname -a && rpm -qa | grep kernel

Here is what I get when I list for 2.6.9-42.cc. If I list 2.6.9-42.ccsmp it loooks different.

I rebooted in single processor mode and tried to compile. This is what I get:

I rebooted with the non-SMP kernel and get a little farther. Now I get new error msgs as shown below. I put my Makefile at the end. Any idea what is missing?

2. CC does not recognize the on-board ethernet. I installed the nvlan-rhel4 rpm from the nvidia website. After that I get eth0 ok during bootup but the ethernet is not found by clarkconnect. i.e. I do not see it when I log in at the console to setup clarkconnect. I was able to get CC going using two netgear ethernet cards, but I would like to eventually get the on-board ethernet going. Any ideas?
