Hi All,
I have run into a problem doing koan installs of SL6.2 on machines with onboard igb nics.
The : 3.0.6-k version of the igb dirver intermittently drops the connection, causing the koan installation to fail.
This problem was fixed in the 3.0.22 version of the igb driver.
Unfortunately, I can't upgrade to SL6.4 (long story).
So my plan is to replace the igb.ko.gz in images/pxeboot/initrd.img
with a 3.0.22 version.
My question is how to build a new igb driver which matches the installer kernel in images/pxeboot/vmlinuz
Which kernel source should I use?
Where is the .config file?
Apologies if this is the wrong forum for this question. I have searched the FAQs and HOWTOs on
www.sceintificlinux.org
but not found anything relevant.
Thanks in advance for any pointers!
Amnon
