About Variables In the Driver Installation Instructions
These conventions are used for variable text for kernel strings and
module names in the instructions on the following pages.
Kernel String Conventions
<kernel string> refers to the kernel version.
The kernel string will have different endings, depending on the
kernel you are using.
„
For an SMP kernel (multi-processor), the kernel string will end
in
smp
. For example:
2.4.18-14smp
.
„
For an Enterprise kernel, the kernel string will end in
enterprise
. For example:
2.4.18-14enterprise
„
For a Bigmem kernel, the kernel string will end in
bigmem.
For
example:
2.4.18-14bigmem
„
For a Hugemem kernel, the kernel string will end in
hugemem
.
For example:
2.4.18-14hugmem
Module Naming Conventions
3w-9xxx.* refers to the specific module you will copy in the
examples shown in steps 3 and 4.
The name of the module you will copy (
3w-9xxx.*
) varies,
depending on the kernel; however you will always copy it to a file
named 3w-9xxx.o for 2.4 kernels, or 3w-9xxx.ko for 2.6 kernels.
The available module files are:
„
For UP kernels:
3w-9xxx.o
„
For SMP kernels:
3w-9xxx.smp
„
For Enterprise kernels:
3w-9xxx.ent
„
For Bigmem kernels:
3w-9xxx.big
„
For Hugemem kernels:
3w-9xxx.hug
„
For IA32E kernels:
3w-9xxx.i32
