Below are the instructions for installing linux driver. You must complie =
the
source code to generate rtl8139.o and use "insmod" to insert rtl8139.o =
as module.
You can use "netconfig" utilities to setup network parameters for the =
driver.
Files Description:
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
rtl8139.c The adapter source code. You can download the newest version =
from
http://cesdis.gsfc.nasa.gov/linux/drivers/rtl8139.html or
ftp://cesdis.gsfc.nasa.gov/pub/linux/drivers/rtl8139.c
trans Compile batch file.
linux.txt This file.
Installation:
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
1. Plug 32-Bit PCI Fast Ethernet Adapter into PC's PCI-bus slot.
2. Boot into LINUX and keyin the following commands at the LINUX prompt.
Remember, LINUX is case sensitive.
mkdir /temp
mcopy a:/linux/rtl8139.c /temp
(Copied from LINUX directory of the driver diskette.)
("mcopy" is the mtools. If you don't have mtools, you can
mount -t msdos /dev/fd0 /mnt and use cp command)
mcopy a:/linux/trans /temp
cd /temp
chmod 777 trans
3. Run trans file to complie and copy driver to linux source code:
cd /temp
./trans
(rtl8139.o will be generated and be copied to =
/usr/src/linux/modules.)
4. Run netconfig (or netcfg) to set you network parameter (like ip, =
gateway).
Slackware: Run "netconfig" to configure IP environment.
This will create '/etc/rc.d/rc.inet1' and 'rc.inet2' =
files.
netconfig
RedHat:
- Add "alias eth0 rtl8139" into the /etc/conf.modules file.
cd /etc
vi conf.modules
alias eth0 rtl8139
- Run "netcfg" in the xterm of X-window to configure IP environment.
startx
netcfg
(Configure IP of eth0 and enable "Activate interface at boot =
time".)
5. Use editor vi to modify 'rc.inet1'(or 'rc') in the /etc/rc.d =
directory to
insmod driver. This file will be run at boot time. You just add a =
line
at the beginning of 'rc.inet1'(or 'rc').
Slackware:
cd /etc/rc.d
vi rc.inet1
insmod /usr/src/linux/modules/rtl8139.o
RedHat: Add a line at the beginning of 'rc' file.
cd /etc/rc.d
vi rc
insmod /usr/src/linux/modules/rtl8139.o
6. Reboot the LINUX.
reboot ( or shutdown -r now )
When system boots, the driver will be loaded. Then the driver will
scan I/O port to see if a card is there.
(You can run 'dmesg' to see the boot message.)
7. Run 'ifconfig' or 'netstat -i' to see if there is a interface 'eth0'.
Note:
Make sure that your kernel is built with network, fast_ethernet and =
module
support. Otherwise, you have to rebuild your kernel.
(1) Go to /usr/src/linux directory
(2) Run 'make menuconfig' or 'make config'
(3) Mark the options list above.
(4) Exit and rebuild your kernel.
make dep;make clean;make zImage
The file 'zImage' will be at /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/boot/zImage
(5) Modify /etc/lilo.conf. (This file specify where kernel image is)
(6) Run 'lilo'.
