Installing Source RPM Package
1. Install the source RPM package:
rpm -ivh bcm5700-<version>.src.rpmrpm -ivh bcm5700-<version>.src.rpm
rpm -ivh bcm5700-<version>.src.rpmrpm -ivh bcm5700-<version>.src.rpm
rpm -ivh bcm5700-<version>.src.rpm
2. Change the directory to the RPM path and build the binary driver for your
kernel:
cd /usr/src/{redhat,OpenLinux,turbo,packages,rpm ..}cd /usr/src/{redhat,OpenLinux,turbo,packages,rpm ..}
cd /usr/src/{redhat,OpenLinux,turbo,packages,rpm ..}cd /usr/src/{redhat,OpenLinux,turbo,packages,rpm ..}
cd /usr/src/{redhat,OpenLinux,turbo,packages,rpm ..}
rpm -bb SPECS/bcm5700.spec or rpmbuild -bb SPECS/rpm -bb SPECS/bcm5700.spec or rpmbuild -bb SPECS/
rpm -bb SPECS/bcm5700.spec or rpmbuild -bb SPECS/rpm -bb SPECS/bcm5700.spec or rpmbuild -bb SPECS/
rpm -bb SPECS/bcm5700.spec or rpmbuild -bb SPECS/
bcm5700.specbcm5700.spec
bcm5700.specbcm5700.spec
bcm5700.spec
3. Install the newly built package (driver and man page):
rpm -ivh RPMS/i386/bcm5700-<version>.i386.rpmrpm -ivh RPMS/i386/bcm5700-<version>.i386.rpm
rpm -ivh RPMS/i386/bcm5700-<version>.i386.rpmrpm -ivh RPMS/i386/bcm5700-<version>.i386.rpm
rpm -ivh RPMS/i386/bcm5700-<version>.i386.rpm
Note that the RPM path is different for different Linux distributions.
Note that the force option is needed if installing on some distributions that may
already contain an older version of the driver.
