OL-1376-02

Chapter 3 Installing and Configuring the Client Adapter

Installing the Driver and Client Utilities

Caution Be careful when selecting your option. Some configuration options look similar, and the system does not

ensure that you select the correct one.

Type the letter of the configuration that matches your kernel and press Enter. The driver is now installed.

Step 4 Insert your PC card or PCI client adapter into the computer.

Step 5 Perform one of the following, depending on the type of client adapter you have:

• If you have a PC card, reboot your computer (recommended), or restart Card and Socket Services.

The driver loads automatically.

• If you have a PCI client adapter, perform one of the following:

–

If you have a distribution of Linux that uses linuxconf, such as Red Hat, use this utility to assign

the driver to the PCI client adapter.

–

If your distribution does not use linuxconf, manually edit one startup file to insert insmod airo.o

to load the driver.

Note Follow the recommendations of your distribution regarding which startup file to modify and

where to insert the command.

Step 6 Go to the “Additional Procedures” section on page 3-16 to see if you need to perform any other

procedures before using your client adapter.

Option 2 for Red Hat Systems

Option 2 requires the presence of compilation tools but does not require the complete

compilation/replacement of the installed kernel.

Caution You must use the kernel source in order to properly execute this procedure.

Step 1 To select option 2, type 2 and press Enter.

Step 2 After an explanation appears, press Enter to continue or Ctrl+C to exit.

Step 3 After another explanation appears, press Enter.

Step 4 Your kernel information line is displayed, followed by a choice of default kernel configuration options.

Here is an example kernel information line:

Linux leftbox.aironet.com 2.4.2-2 #1 Sun Apr 8 20:41:30 EDT 2001 i686 unknown

In this example, i686 means that this is a kernel for the i686 CPU family. Also note that the example

does not contain smp or enterprise. From the list of available options displayed on the screen, the proper

choice for this example would be h) kernel-2.4.2-i686.

Type the letter of the configuration that matches your kernel and press Enter.

Caution Be careful when selecting your option. Some configuration options look similar, and the system does not

ensure that you select the correct one.
