Installing the AT-2931SX BASP TAR Archive
Use the procedures in this section to install Linux i386 distributions that
are neither Red Hat nor United Linux distributions. Installing the AT-
2931SX BASP TAR archive involves both uncompressing the archive and
then installing it.
To uncompress and expand the tar archive, run:
% tar xvfz basplnx-{version}.{arch}.tgz
To install the AT-2931SX BASP TAR archive, perform the following
procedure:
1. After extraction, change to the directory where the BASP source files
are located.
% cd basplnx-{version}
2. To build a kernel module, "basp.o":
% make
Note
The Make process automatically builds the correct module for
different kernel options, for example, symbol versioning and SMP
support. Do not define -DMODVERSIONS in the Makefile.
3. To create device file and to copy files:
% make install
4. To update the module reference:
% depmod -a
5. To load the driver:
% insmod basp
6. To set up the teams, see “AT-2931SX BASP Configuration and
Startup for Other Linux Distributions” on page 56.
