ULTRA2 LVD SCSI HOST ADAPTER

5.7 Installing Drivers for Linux

Drivers have been developed for the Ultra2 LVD SCSI Host Adapter for use with
most of the major distributions of Linux. However, the procedures for installing
these drivers and recompiling the operating system vary from distribution to
distribution and change frequently. Because this is the case, the procedures for
installing these drivers aren't included in this manual. Instead, take these steps:
This procedure might change as our Web and ftp sites change. If you
can't find the necessary files, please call the Conversions group of Black
Box Technical Support for assistance.
1. Go to our Web site at http://www.blackbox.com and select "Software Updates."
This will take you to ftp://ftp.blackbox.com/pub.
2. Select the "Conversions" folder.
3. When the Conversions page is displayed, download the "linux515.zip" file; this
archive will contain driver source code along with instructions for installing and
compiling it.
