6. Linux RedHat 7.2 I. ADAPTEC SCSI Driver Installation The RedHat 7.2 versions already bundle with Adaptec AIC-7892X Ultra 160 SCSI driver support. II. Intel 82540EM Network Driver Installation This file describes the Linux* Base Driver for the Intel PRO/1000 Family of Adapters, version 4.1.x. This driver is intended for 2.2.x and 2.4.x kernels; it is known to build properly on 2.2.x kernels through 2.2.20 and on 2.4.x kernels through 2.4.17. Intel focused testing on Intel processor-based systems running kernels 2.4.7 and 2.2.16. This driver includes support for Itaniumô-based systems. The Intel PRO/1000 driver is only supported as a loadable module at this time. Intel is not supplying patches against the kernel source†to allow for static linking of the driver. For questions related to hardware requirements, refer to the documentation supplied with your Intel PRO/1000 adapter. All hardware requirements listed apply to use with Linux. New features include support for the Intel PRO/1000 MT Desktop Adapter. Update Driver on an Existing System Installation To build a binary RPM* package of this driver, run 'rpm -tb ' Replace with the specific file name of the driver. NOTE: For the build to work properly, the currently running kernel MUST match the version and configuration of the installed kernel sources. If you have just recompiled the kernel reboot the system now. 1. Move the base driver tar file to the directory of your choice. For example, use: '/home/username/e1000' or '/usr/local/src/e1000' 5-24 Chapter 5: Driver Installation

Chapter 5: Driver Installation
6. Linux RedHat 7.2
I. ADAPTEC SCSI Driver Installation
The RedHat 7.2 versions already bundle with Adaptec AIC-7892X Ultra 160
SCSI driver support.
II. Intel 82540EM Network Driver Installation
This file describes the Linux* Base Driver for the Intel PRO/1000 Family of
Adapters, version 4.1.x. This driver is intended for 2.2.x and 2.4.x kernels; it is
known to build properly on 2.2.x kernels through 2.2.20 and on 2.4.x kernels
through 2.4.17. Intel focused testing on Intel processor-based systems running
kernels 2.4.7 and 2.2.16. This driver includes support for Itaniumô-based
systems.
The Intel PRO/1000 driver is only supported as a loadable module at this time.
Intel is not supplying patches against the kernel source†to allow for static linking
of the driver. For questions related to hardware requirements, refer to the
documentation supplied with your Intel PRO/1000 adapter. All hardware
requirements listed apply to use with Linux.
New features include support for the Intel PRO/1000 MT Desktop Adapter.
Update Driver on an Existing System Installation
To build a binary RPM* package of this driver, run
'rpm -tb <filename.tar.gz>’
Replace <filename.tar.gz> with the specific file name of the driver.
NOTE: For the build to work properly, the currently running kernel
MUST match the version and configuration of the installed kernel
sources. If you have just recompiled the kernel reboot the system now.
1. Move the base driver tar file to the directory of your choice. For example,
use:
‘/home/username/e1000' or '/usr/local/src/e1000’
