Chapter 3 Installing and Configuring the Client Adapter

Installing the Driver and Client Utilities

Step 5 After an explanation appears on patching the kernel source, press Enter. The driver is now in place to

be compiled, and the kernel source is patched.

Caution You should be using the kernel source as installed from Red Hat’s CD-ROM. If the kernel is already in

the patched state or has been modified, the patching process fails. If, however, the only change to the

kernel is that it has used the Cisco Aironet patch previously, then you can successfully complete the

procedure by pressing Enter twice at each series of prompts to skip the patch.

Note You might want to open another session so you can refer to the instructions on the screen.

Step 6 Type cd /usr/src/linux-2.4.2 and press Enter.

Step 7 Type make menuconfig and press Enter.

Step 8 In the menuconfig window, scroll down to Network device support and press Enter.

Step 9 Scroll down to Wireless LAN (non-hamradio) and press Enter.

Step 10 Scroll down to Cisco/Aironet 340/350 and type M (M indicates to make a module).

Step 11 Type E to exit.

Step 12 Scroll down to PCMCIA network device support and press Enter.

Step 13 Scroll down to Cisco/Aironet 340/350 and type M.

Step 14 Continue to select Exit and press Enter until the following message appears: “Do you wish to save your

new kernel configuration?”

Step 15 Select Yes and press Enter.

Step 16 Type dep ; make modules ; make modules_install. The driver and client utilities are now installed.

Step 17 Insert your PC card or PCI client adapter into the computer.

Step 18 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 19 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.
