How do I modify Tulip network card driver for Knoppix

[rwcitek]

I have a need to modify the Tulip network card driver so that Knoppix will recognize my card.

Are you sure you want to do this within Knoppix? Compiling and debugging drivers is challenging enough on a fully installed Linux distro, e.g. Debian, Red Hat, Gentoo, Mandrake, without the additional challenges Knoppix has.

Keep this in mind from Bumper-Sticker Computer Science:

[Thompson's Rule for First-Time Telescope Makers] It is faster to make a four-inch mirror and then a six-inch mirror than to make a six-inch mirror.

BTW, on a Debian install you can simply apt-get the sources. Similar ways exist on other distros. You can modify your apt sources under Knoppix, too.

Good luck and let us know how things go.
