Hi Donald, I would like to update my system (kernel 2.4.18, loadable modules not enabled) eepro100 driver. I did not manage to update using the rpm method or the method below. I am thinking of putting the source files of netdrivers.tgz into the kernel source and recompile the kernel. Will this work? Is there any changes need to be made on the source files? Please advise.
