Installing 3c2000 - ZipCrash - 2004-02-22


I just installed Red Hat 9. I'm trying to install my network card driver. Here is what the readme says:

 

Quote:3Com Gigabit NIC (3C2000) Driver Readme Version A02Copyright



Installing 3c2000 - Guest - 2004-02-22


1) Copy the file /Linux/3c2000.tar.gz from the 3Com driver CD to

your hard drive.

 

2) Change to the directory containing 3c2000.tar.gz

 

3) Type 'tar zxvf 3c2000.tar.gz'

 

4) Type 'cd 3c2000'

 

5). Type 'make load'

 

6) Cant quite remember where it was, think it was in /etc you need to find modules.conf and add in the line

 

'alias eth0 3c2000'

 

7) Do a 'ifconfig eth0 up'

 

Double check by looking in X - in the network prefs that its there if it aint add it and you'll see 3c2000 there to add then press activate.

 

thats how i did mine anyways.

you need to install the development tools such as GCC. also if you don't have source of your current kernel version. you can get it via apt-get, the explaintion how to use it can be found on: [/url][url=<___base_url___>/index.php?showtopic=174][/url][url=<___base_url___>/index.php?showtopic=174]https://www.linux-noob.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=174

 

apt-get can get anything you want/needs

 

I.E, to get the GCC on your linux. use:



Code:
su -

(enter password)

# apt-get install gcc




 

if it not working. you need to do is. apt-get update, then try install it, if it not found; you can use search by using: apt-cache search gcc.

 

Hope this help you.

Quote:Package gcc has no available version, but exists in the database.This typically means that the package was mentioned in the dependency and

never uploaded, has been obsoleted or is not available with the contents of the sources.list

 

E: Package gcc has no installation candidate
 

Probably beucase I was not able to update, probably due the fact that I don't have a net connection in Red Hat becuase I can't get my drivers to work. What now? :)

woops that was me :)



Installing 3c2000 - ZipCrash - 2004-02-23

ok I'm going back and installing development tools. A friend of mine said that's what I needed. So we shall see if it works. Thanks for all of your help so far.

yay it's working. My friend told me that I needed the linux source to be in that one dir so I downloaded that and when I installed the dev tools it put the source in there so I had two. I just deleted the one I donwloaded and it compiled. Then I did what Guest_Dave ( ;) ) said and now it works! Yay! :)Thanks for all the help.
