A6826A PCI-X Host Bus Adapter for Linux 64-bit Systems Installation Guide
Installing the Driver on the Boot Drive
Note:
The following instructions for installing the driver and loading and unloading
the driver are required only if the driver has been built from source. If the driver binary
was installed from the RPM, the driver loads at boot time.
Before installing the driver, note the following:
■
The A6826A HBA must be installed in the system before installing the
qla2300 driver.
■
The <kernel_release_version> is the Linux kernel release version of your
system.
■
In the following examples, the path to your driver may be:
/lib/modules/<
kernel_release_version
>/kernel/drivers/addon/…
Perform the following steps to install the qla2300 driver on the boot drive:
1. Build the driver binary file. To build a driver binary from source files, see the
section
Building a Driver from the Sources
2. Copy the qla2300.o binary file to the following directory:
/lib/modules/<
kernel_release_version
>/kernel/drivers/scsi
3. At the command prompt, enter the following command to update the module
dependency:
# depmod -a
The qla2300 driver is now installed on your boot drive. However, the driver
must be loaded before the system can access the devices attached to the HBA.
