    Help me compile Promise Drivers

    I got these drivers for my Fasttrak 376 Controller but I can't get it to compile. http://www.antgel.co.uk/compsci/linu...ise_raid.shtml
    I managed to fix some of the headers that are in different directories but some of the headers do not even exist anywhere in the filesystem.

    knoppix@ttyp0[par15]$ make

    You'll need the full kernel sources to compile the promise raid driver. The kernel headers doesn't have the directories that the driver needs to compile against. Go to www.kernel.org and download the 2.4.24 full kernel source package. You'll need to get the xfs patch from the debian archives, and patch it against the kernel source, as well as the patch klaus left in /usr/src. That will give you the exact kernel source Klaus used to compile your kernel. Make a modules directory in /usr/src and put your source code for the promise driver in there and compile with the kernel, or separately, if you prefer.

    HTH,

    Durand

    P.S.: If you're running from cd, this won't work, it has to be done from a full install only.
