Hello.
I am trying to compile a driver for the ITE8212 RAID interface that is built
onto the Gigabyte GA-K7N400 Pro motherboard.
I downloaded the driver source from the ITE web site.
I've successfully compiled the 2.4.21-15.EL kernel from source and compiled
the modules but I cannot get the WBEL 3 Liberation Respin 1 installer to
recognize the driver.
I'd appreciate any pointers to how I may compile this driver.
I have a hunch that I'm not using the correct EXTRAVERSION in
/usr/src/2.4.21-15.EL/Makefile. What's the correct EXTRAVERSION for the
installer kernel in WBEL 3 Liberation Respin 1?
I am new at compiling drivers, so I welcome any tips, URLS to read. I've
read and tried to follow a couple of articles on compiling drivers but have
not had success.
Thanks in advance.
