I am trying to install lancard driver , i am using Adcom lancard and i am using redhat 8.0


[root@hello linux-2.4.x]# make clean
rm -f *.o
[root@hello linux-2.4.x]# make
gcc -DMODULE -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux-2.4/include -O NS -c -o pci-scan.o pci-scan.c
In file included from pci-scan.c:67:

/usr/src/linux-2.4/include/linux/malloc.h:4:2: #error linuxab.h instead.
make: *** [pci-scan.o] Error 1

[root@hello linux-2.4.x]# insmod pciscan.o
insmod: pciscan.o: No such file or directory


for reference readme of landriver is provided :-

3. Make network adapter driver modules
touch *
make clean
make

*Under some distribution, such as SuSe 7.2 and BluePoi
nt 2.0, there is no version.h.
You have to run "make config" or "make menuconfig" at
/usr/src/linux to create it.

**If you are using Mandrake 8.0/RedHat 7.3 and you have
problems when insmod the dirver, please
remove "-DMODVERSIONS" option from makefile.

**When use the driver under RedHat 7.3, you will see so
me warning message,
you can ignore it.

***On SMP system, the driver may NOT work well. The bug
will be fixed in the future.

4. Insert network adapter driver modules

insmod pciscan.o
insmod mtd80x.o 5. Bind your card to an IP address

ifconfig eth0 {IPADDR} netmask {NETMASK}

6. Now, you should be able to ping local network.

*Every time you reboot the system, you must execute step 4
and step 5
again to bind your card.

Firstly, as you can see above - you have forgotten the hyphen when insmod'ding.
Secondly, it seems as though your compiler doesn't much care for malloc.h - and would like for you to use linuxab.h instead. This should be easy to fix. Try this:

Open /usr/src/linux-2.4/include/linux/malloc.h.
On or around line 4 - you will see an entry like this:
Change it to read like this:
Hit enter to go to a newline, and add the following:
Recompile as you were above, and see what happens. Good luck!

#cat malloc.h

-------------------------------------------------
#ifndef _LINUX_MALLOC_H
#define _LINUX_MALLOC_H

#error linux/malloc.h is deprecated, use linux/slab.h instead.

#include <linux/slab.h>
#endif /* _LINUX_MALLOC_H */
---------------------------------------------------

could u tell me what should i change in this file.
