hostap-driver-0.1.3 won't install; CONFIG_NET_RADIO?


I'm trying to set up the IPW2100 driver for my Centrino system. Host AP drivers won't install. I get the following on make:

Makefile:20: /usr/src/linux/.config: No such file or directory
Makefile:38: WARNING: No kernel PCMCIA support found and PCMCIA_PATH is not defined
Makefile:45: WARNING: Linux wireless extensions, CONFIG_NET_RADIO, not enabled in the kernel
make: *** No rule to make target `/usr/src/linux/.config'. Stop.

My autoconf.h lists #define CONFIG_NET_RADIO 1, and should because I enabled it before rebuilding the kernel. I don't know where to check PCMCIA info, but that should be enabled too. I'm using 2.6.5 in FC2. Can anyone help?

Thanks,

Shahin

Got a reply at another forum that fixes this problem:


Quote:
Looks like the KERNEL_PATH variable in the hostap Makefile points to the wrong directory. Edit the makefile, so that this variable points to your kernel source directory. For example:

Code:
KERNEL_PATH=/usr/src/linux-2.6.6/
