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
