Help installing (broadcom) bcm5700 for RedHat AS 3
I just did a clean install of Red Hat AS 3 and I am having problems installing the Broadcom network card (bcm5700).
I installed the RPM Package: # Install the source RPM package: rpm -ivh bcm5700-<version>.src.rpm Change the directory to the RPM path and build the binary driver for your kernel: cd /usr/src/{redhat,OpenLinux,turbo,packages,rpm ..} rpm -bb SPECS/bcm5700.spec or rpmbuild -bb SPECS/bcm5700.spec I ran rpmbuild -bb SPECS/bcm5700.spec and received this error: Makefiel:46 *** Linux kernel source tree not found. Stop. Error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.80140(%build) rpm build errors: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.80140(%build) So I tried building it from the TAR file: 1. Create a directory and extract the TAR files: tar xvzf bcm5700-<version>.tar.gz 2. Build the driver bcm5700.o as a loadable module for the running kernel: cd bcm5700-<version>/src make 3. Test the driver by loading it: insmod bcm5700.o 4. Install the driver and man page: make install but when I go to the bcm5700-7.3.5/src directory and do a 'make' I get the same error as before which is: Linux kernel source tree not found. Stop. What am I missing here? Can anybody help me out? Do I need to install some patches first? Thanks you! |

You HAVE to install the kernel-source rpms...
