Step-by-step instructions of installation of Pent@NET satellite network card under Linux 2.4
Статья опубликована с любезного разрешения автора.
Step 1
- Download latest linux-2.4 kernel from kernel.org. I note that driver sometimes does not work on 2.4.2 kernel.
- Unpack it into /usr/src/linux.
- Please cd /usr/src/linux; make menuconfig and configure your kernel. You can get my configuration here and put it as /usr/src/linux/.config
- Compile your kernel and modules by commands: make dep && make bzImage && make modules && make modules_install
- Install new kernel to ASPLoader or lilo.
- Download latest pentamc-* driver from pentamedia.com.
- Unpack it into /usr/src/pentamc
- Please cd /usr/src/pentamc; make to compile driver. Do not worry if there were errors.
- REBOOT using new kernel
- Please cd /usr/src/pentamc;cp appx/tp1.conf /etc/;cp appt/pentanett /usr/local/bin/; insmod drv/pentanet.o to load driver. No errors should be here.
- Checkpoint! Do /sbin/ifconfig pentanet0 You should see some (zero) statistic.
- do /sbin/ifconfig pentanet0 192.168.99.1
- edit /etc/tp1.conf to setup your directives
- do /usr/local/bin/pentanett -a -f /etc/tp1.conf; /usr/local/bin/pentanett -s
- Checkpoint. check data going through your Pent@NET. ping your satellite provider while doing tcpdump -ni pentanet0.
