Chapter 3: Driver installation

 

rpm -bb SPECS/netxtreme2.spec

 or

 

(For RPM version 4.x.x)

rpmbuild -bb SPECS/netxtreme2.spec

 

Note that the RPM path is different for different Linux distributions.

 

The driver will be compiled for the running kernel by default. To build the driver for a 

kernel different than the running one, specify the kernel by defining it in KVER:

rpmbuild -bb SPECS/netxtreme2.spec --define “KVER <kernel 

version>”

 

<kernel version> in the form of 

2.x.y-z

 is the version of another kernel that is installed 

on the system.
