Example:

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

# mkdir /mnt/initrd

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

# cp /tmp/rr2310_00.ko /mnt/initrd/lib/rr2310_00.ko

# 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 rr2310_00.ko in /lib/modules:

# cp /tmp/rr2310_00.ko /lib/modules/‘uname –r‘/kernel/drivers/scsi/rr2310_00.ko

Reboot your system to allow the new driver take effect.
