Hello all,
I am trying to compile a BCM4401 driver directly from Broadcoms source found here:
http://www.broadcom.com/support/ethernet_nic/4401.php
, as I am having problems with the one in V5..3.1 and terminal servixes
- my note here: http://www.knoppix.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=29145
The Broadcom readme gives instructions for two installation methods
1- Installing Source RPM Package
2 - Building Driver From TAR File
Following the first instruction set :
works fine, butCode:rpm -ivh b44-1.00g-1.src.rpm(after a cd /usr/src/rpm) fails with:Code:rpmbuild -bb SPECS/b44.spec
The second method fails in a similar fashion. Any ideas what Error 2 is and what I can do about it?Code:Executing(%prep): /bin/sh -e /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.10500 + umask 022 + cd /usr/src/rpm/BUILD + cd /usr/src/rpm/BUILD + rm -rf b44-1.00g + /bin/gzip -dc /usr/src/rpm/SOURCES/b44-1.00g.tar.gz + tar -xvvf - drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2006-06-07 09:21 b44-1.00g/ -rw-r--r-- root/root 3990 2006-06-07 09:21 b44-1.00g/Makefile -rw-r--r-- root/root 64037 2006-06-07 09:29 b44-1.00g/b44.c -rwxr-xr-x root/root 15153 2006-06-07 09:21 b44-1.00g/LICENSE -rw-r--r-- root/root 23272 2006-06-07 09:21 b44-1.00g/b44.h -rw-r--r-- root/root 2076 2006-06-07 09:21 b44-1.00g/b44.4 + STATUS=0 + '[' 0 -ne 0 ']' + cd b44-1.00g + exit 0 Executing(%build): /bin/sh -e /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.10500 + umask 022 + cd /usr/src/rpm/BUILD + cd b44-1.00g + make make -C /lib/modules/2.6.24.4/build SUBDIRS=/usr/src/rpm/BUILD/b44-1.00g modules make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.24' scripts/Makefile.build:46: *** CFLAGS was changed in "/usr/src/rpm/BUILD/b44-1.0 0g/Makefile".
