Hi,
I'd wish to find information on how to install a new ISA card on my
FreeBSD 3.2 station from A to Z (I've never done so before, and I cannot
find much information in the handbook about this...)
Of course, I've got the proper driver sources.
So far, I've fancied that it could be something like:
- Potentially adding a device-node with a 'sh MAKEDEV device-name'
(but what is this name for ISA card #2?)
- Then fill in the /sys/conf/files with required driver files
is the following example line correct?
'MY_PATH/device_name_driv.c optional device_name device-driver'
- Then alter the GENERIC file (or a copy of it) as to take the new
device into account:
'device device_name'
- Finally configure compile and install the new kernel with the
well-known sequence:
'cd /usr/src/sys/i386/conf
config MY_NEW_KERNEL
cd ../../compile/MY_NEW_KERNEL
make depend
make
make install'
Would somebody tell me what to read or what to do more, and possibly
correct theabove procedure?
Thanks to you all!
Eric
