8This file contains the instructions and caveats for my SMC9xxx driver. You
9should not be using the driver without reading this file.
10
11Things to note about installation:
12
13 1. The driver should work on all kernels from 1.2.13 until 1.3.71.
14 (A kernel patch is supplied for 1.3.71 )
15
16 2. If you include this into the kernel, you might need to change some
17 options, such as for forcing IRQ.
18
19
20 3. To compile as a module, run 'make' .
21 Make will give you the appropriate options for various kernel support.
22
23 4. Loading the driver as a module :
24
25 use: insmod smc9194.o
26 optional parameters:
27 io=xxxx : your base address
28 irq=xx : your irq
29 ifport=x : 0 for whatever is default
30 1 for twisted pair
31 2 for AUI ( or BNC on some cards )
