Linux 2.4 Driver Installation

This chapter explains how to install the network driver on a computer running Linux 2.4.

To obtain the latest version of a driver, go to:

http://www.3com.com/

Search for “3CR990B” and “drivers.” The network driver can be used in both Microsoft

and NetWare network environments.

Installing the Network Driver

To install the driver:

1 Make sure that the NIC is installed in the computer, as described in “Installing and

Connecting the NIC” on page 3.

2 Make sure that the kernel source is installed in /usr/src/linux or /usr/src/linux-2.4.

3 Copy the file /Linux/3c990.tar.gz from the 3Com Installation CD to your hard drive.

a Create a directory to mount the CD-ROM into (if it does not exist):

mkdir /mnt/cdrom

b Mount the CD-ROM using the following command:

mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom

c Copy the driver to a temporary directory:

mkdir /tmp/3c990

cp /mnt/cdrom/Linux/* /tmp/3c990

4 Unpack the driver:

cd /tmp/3c990

tar zxvf 3c990.tar.gz

5 Compile the driver:

cd /tmp/3c990/3c990

make

6 Load the driver:

make load

Depending on your configuration, the operating system may automatically start the

interface and request an address from a DHCP server. If it does not, start the interface

using the following command:

ifconfig eth0 up

You may have to substitute ' eth0 ' for your actual interface if you have more than

one Ethernet NIC installed.

NOTE: Before installing the driver, make sure you are logged in as root

(SuperUser).
