help!

Hmmm did you try configuring your makefile? There usually are settings that manage the installation process.

Take a look here. If you have downloaded the driver at the bottom of the page and didn't work, then take a look at the file Intel536_inst to see what it does during "make install" and find out how it modifies the init scripts.

I wouldn't care about the boot script installation.
If the driver compiles properly, just add a line like
/sbin/modprobe Intel536
to your /etc/rc.d/rc.modules
then load the driver manually
and create a symlink to /dev/modem by
ln -s /dev/536ep /dev/modem
Configure your favourite dialer (kppp, minicom or if you like ppp directly) and you should be after.
Hope this helps
