To install a RedHat Linux driver more recent than the one on the RedHat CD, you must use a driver diskette when you are installing the operating system. See
Installing the Driver for information on this procedure. You must download the files before you begin the operating system installation.
For more detailed installation instructions for RedHat Linux 9.0 or later, see the operating system installation guide on the Dell Support site at:
support.dell.com .

includes two RPMs and five driver disk files. From a RedHat Linux system, enter the following commands to separate the individual driver files from the tar
archive file:
mount /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy
tar xvzf -C /mnt/floppy /tmp/filename.tar.gz
NOTE: In Windows 2003, select the name of the driver, not the INF file.
