2. Enter the following command to change directory to the temporary directory.
# cd emlxtemp
3. Copy or download the device driver RPM file to the temporary directory.
4. Enter the following command if the file is in the format filename.rpm.Z and
kernel source files are installed:
# uncompress filename.rpm.Z
5. Enter the following command to install the driver into
/usr/src/linux/drivers/scsi/lpfc, the driver_installation_directory.
# rpm -i filename.rpm
6. Enter the following command to install the driver into
/usr/src/<kernelsource>/drivers/scsi/lpfc, the driver_installation_directory.
# rpm -i --prefix /usr/src/<kernelsource>/drivers/scsi/lpfc
filename.rpm
If the prefix option is used you must update BASEINCLUDE in the Makefile
placed in the installation directory.
