Install the source RPM package: rpm -ivh tg3-.src.rpm 2. CD to the RPM path and build the binary driver for your kernel: cd /usr/src/{redhat,OpenLinux,turbo,packages,rpm ..} rpm -bb SPECS/tg3.spec or rpmbuild -bb SPECS/tg3.spec (for RPM version 4.x.x) The RPM path is different for different Linux distributions. 3.

The driver will be installed in the following path: 2.4x kernels: /lib/modules//kernel/drivers/net/tg3.o 2.6.x kernels: /lib/modules//kernel/drivers/net/tg3.ko 4. Load the driver: insmod tg3.o insmod tg3.ko (on 2.6.x kernels) modprobe tg3 5. To configure network protocol and address, refer to various Linux documentations. ASUS KFN32-D SLI Series 6-13

Installing Source RPM Package
1.
Install the source RPM package:
rpm -ivh tg3-<version>.src.rpm
2.
CD to the RPM path and build the binary driver for your kernel:
cd /usr/src/{redhat,OpenLinux,turbo,packages,rpm ..}
rpm -bb SPECS/tg3.spec
or
rpmbuild -bb SPECS/tg3.spec (for RPM version 4.x.x)
The RPM path is different for different Linux distributions.
3.
Install the newly built package (driver and man page):
rpm -ivh RPMS/<arch>/tg3-<version>.<arch>.rpm
<arch> is the architecture of the machine, e.g. i386:
rpm -ivh RPMS/i386/tg3-<version>.i386.rpm
The --force option may be needed on some Linux distributions if
conflicts are reported.
The driver will be installed in the following path:
2.4x kernels:
/lib/modules/<kernel_version>/kernel/drivers/net/tg3.o
2.6.x kernels:
/lib/modules/<kernel_version>/kernel/drivers/net/tg3.ko
4.
Load the driver:
insmod tg3.o
insmod tg3.ko (on 2.6.x kernels)
modprobe tg3
5. To configure network protocol and address, refer to various Linux
documentations.
