The approach of building a monolithic kernel has become obsolete. The driver

it is necessary to issue the following command:

To compile the driver, you need kernel header files. After

Q2: Could not find header files (``*.h``)?
|
||||
|
||||
To compile the driver, you need kernel header files. After
|
||||
installing the kernel source, the header files are usually located in
|
||||
/usr/src/linux/include, which is the default include directory configured
|
||||
in Makefile. For some distributions, there is a copy of header files in
|
||||
/usr/src/include/linux and /usr/src/include/asm, that you can change the
|
||||
INCLUDEDIR in Makefile to /usr/include without installing kernel source.
|
||||
Note that RH 7.0 didn't provide correct header files in /usr/include,

||||
|
||||
Note that RH 7.0 didn't provide correct header files in /usr/include,
