My mistake I have got this far We will now use the ndiscvt utility to create the driver definition headerndis_driver_data.hto build the module: # *ndiscvt -i W32DRIVER.INF -s W32DRIVER.SYS -o ndis_driver_data.h* The -i and -s options specify the configuration and binary files,=20 respectively. We use the -o ndis_driver_data.h option because the Makefilewill be looking for this file when it comes time to build the module. * Note: *Some Windows drivers require additional files to operate. You may= =20 include them with ndiscvt by using the -f option. Consult the ndiscvt(8)=20 manual page for more information. Finally, we can build and install the driver module: # *make && make install* This is the point at which it breaks... =20 On 02/06/05, Neo-Vortex wrote:=20 >=20 >=20 >=20 > On Thu, 2 Jun 2005, lysergius2001 wrote: >=20 > > Can anyone help? > > I am trying to install Belkin fd57000 pci wireless card in a box runnin= g > > FBSD 5.3.
