ISI5634PCI/4/8 Quick Start Guide

For RPM version 6.2, issue the command

'mcopy a:isicom-1.1-3.src.rpm <destination folder>' to copy the isicom-1.1-3.src.rpm ( or current driver name) file to the destination folder.

For RPM version 7.0, issue the command

'mcopy a:isicom-1.2-3.src.rpm <destination folder>' to copy the isicom-1.2-3.src.rpm ( or current driver name) file to the destination folder.

As an alternative, the floppy can be manually mounted and the file copied to the required destination folder.

NOTE: To read from a DOS formatted floppy, a kernel with support for the FAT file system (either statically linked in the kernel or as modules) is required.

Steps for copying the driver from a floppy:

1.Linux floppy disks are in ext2 format.

2.Insert Linux driver in drive A: and mount floppy drive.

>mount -t ext2 /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy

3.Copy files from floppy to a temporary directory on hard drive.

>mkdir /isi

>cd /isi

4.The current isicom.o file should be backed up before installing the RPM. The easiest way is simply to rename it or copy it into another file. For example, “cp (or mv) isicom.o isicom.original”. It is usually located in the /usr/local/ISICOM directory. For the version 7 RPM, you will need to use the ‘--force’ option in the RPM command as in step 5b below.

5a. For RPM version 6.2:

Copy the RPM to a temporary folder. In this example, we’ll use /isi. Installation is in three parts, building the ‘isicom-smp.spec’ file from the source file, then building the actual RPM from that “spec” file, and finally, installing the RPM. Do not type the quotation marks shown in the commands below.
