Well, I am here to hack my kernel to get my NIC detected in RHL 7.2 (2.4.7).
The problem is I can't find the - #/usr/src/menuconfig & there's nothing
called /usr/src/linux-2.4.X...the other commands are also not being taken...
Can anyone suggest me what should I do to hack my kernel for this particular
matter?
Thnx.
If your Linux kernel is any new version above than 2.4.5
(included) and it is a new installation, you can configure the
kernel by following console commands to enable the driver for
SURECOM EP-320X-S/S-1 100/10M Ethernet PCI Adapter.
#/usr/src/menuconfig
Enable the option of "Myson MTD-8XX PCI Ethernet support"
in "Ethernet (10 or 100 M bit)" of "Network device support" as a
loadable module or system default module.
#make dep
#make clean
#make bzImage
#cp /usr/src/linux-2.4.X/arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot
Then, edit /etc/lilo.conf, run "/sbin/lilo", and then reboot
your Linux system. After new kernel has been rebooted, it will
automatically load the driver for this adapter.
