Question Need HELP installing Marvell network drivers


So... trying to install marvel yukoni driver to centos 4.2

Code:
[root@localhost DriverInstall]# ./install.sh

Installation script for sk98lin driver.
Version 8.28.1.3 (Sep-29-2005)
(C)Copyright 2003-2005 Marvell(R).
====================================================
Add to your trouble-report the logfile install.log
which is located in the  DriverInstall directory.
====================================================


1) installation
2) generate patch
3) exit
Choose your favorite installation method: 1
Please read this carfully!

This script will automatically compile and load the sk98lin
driver on your host system. Before performing both compilation
and loading, it is necessary to shutdown any device using the
sk98lin kernel module and to unload the old sk98lin kernel
module. This script will do this automatically per default.

Please plug a card into your machine. Without a card we aren't
able to check the full driver functionality.

you'd need to install kernel-devel or kernel-headers, but afaik the sk98lin driver should arelady be on your system as part of the default centos kernel, so just try a "modprobe sk98lin" and you might'nt need to install anything,

Just to reinforce acid_kewpie’s comment, you can also select the driver using the network tool under the name “SysKonnect SK-98xx Gigabit”. That’s what I use for a “Marvell” onboard NIC.
