Linux Driver Support

Example: (2.4.21-4.EL for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3.0):

# gzip -dc /boot/initrd-xxx.img > /tmp/initrd.ext2

# mkdir /mnt/initrd # mount -o loop /tmp/initrd.ext2 /mnt/initrd

# cp /tmp/rr232x.o /mnt/initrd/lib/rr232x.o # umount /mnt/initrd

# gzip -c /tmp/initrd.ext2 > /boot/initrd-xxx.img

If you are using lilo to boot the system, use “lilo” to reinstall the RAM disk:

# lilo

Update rr232x.o in /lib/modules:

# cp /tmp/rr232x.o /lib/modules/‘uname –r‘/kernel/drivers/scsi/rr232x.o

Reboot your system to allow the new driver take effect.
