Hi all,
I'm trying to use Doug Ledford's driver disk package
(
http://people.redhat.com/dledford/) to create a driver disk for the ITE
RAID driver, and i'm missing something. I hacked the makefile to give
me a directory for FC1, but it doesn't produce the correct result.
Some things that were not clear to me from the doco:
1. Should the entire kernel tree be present at 2.4.22-1.2115.nptl/ in
the directory where the kit is extracted? It seems that something is
required here, but my copy of the source from
/usr/src/linux-2.4.22-1.2115.nptl/ didn't seem to produce the correct
result.
2. Should the Makefile in scsi/ just make the driver i'm interested in,
or must it be for a full build tree with additional patches for the
driver i'm making?
3. What should the contents of scsi/ be? It seems that at least some
of the files need to be named differently from their names on the final
driver disk (e.g. module-info vs. modinfo, rhdd-6.1 vs. disk-info), but
i can't work out which ones need to be named which.
4. Some of the files in my scsi/ directory seemed to get copied and/or
linked into 2.4.22-1.2115.nptl/. Is this normal, or am i doing
something else wrong?
Thanks in advance for your replies.
Apologies for pestering, but does anyone out there have the time to
answer these few questions?
