Compiling a 3ware Driver for SuSE Linux
For Experts Only
If you wish to compile the driver yourself (for a different kernel version that you are running), then perform the following steps. (Note that the steps vary somewhat for 2.4 kernels and 2.6 kernels; instructions are provided for each.)
You must have a full Linux kernel source tree in /usr/src/linux in order to do the compile.
To compile a 3ware driver for SuSE Linux 2.4 kernels
1Download the 3ware 2.4 driver source from the 3ware website (www.3ware.com) or copy the driver source from the CD into a working directory.
2Install the Kernel source under /usr/src.
3Create a symbolic link.
ln | /usr/src/linux |
4 Change the directory to
cd /usr/src/linux
