Below are the instructions for installing linux driver. You must complie =
the
source code to generate rtl8139.o and use "insmod" to insert rtl8139.o =
as module.
You can use "netconfig" utilities to setup network parameters for the =
driver.

Files Description:
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
rtl8139.c  The adapter source code. You can download the newest version =
from
           http://cesdis.gsfc.nasa.gov/linux/drivers/rtl8139.html  or
           ftp://cesdis.gsfc.nasa.gov/pub/linux/drivers/rtl8139.c
trans      Compile batch file.
linux.txt  This file.

Installation:
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
1. Plug 32-Bit PCI Fast Ethernet Adapter into PC's PCI-bus slot.

2. Boot into LINUX and keyin the following commands at the LINUX prompt.
   Remember, LINUX is case sensitive.

      mkdir /temp
      mcopy a:/linux/rtl8139.c /temp
            (Copied from LINUX directory of the driver diskette.)
            ("mcopy" is the mtools. If you don't have mtools, you can
             mount -t msdos /dev/fd0 /mnt and use cp command)
      mcopy a:/linux/trans /temp
      cd /temp
      chmod 777 trans

3. Run trans file to complie and copy driver to linux source code:

      cd /temp
      ./trans

      (rtl8139.o will be generated and be copied to =
/usr/src/linux/modules.)

4. Run netconfig (or netcfg) to set you network parameter (like ip, =
gateway).

   Slackware: Run "netconfig" to configure IP environment.
              This will create '/etc/rc.d/rc.inet1' and 'rc.inet2' =
files.

      netconfig


   RedHat:
   - Add "alias eth0 rtl8139" into the /etc/conf.modules file.
      cd /etc
      vi conf.modules
         alias eth0 rtl8139

   - Run "netcfg" in the xterm of X-window to configure IP environment.
      startx
      netcfg
      (Configure IP of eth0 and enable "Activate interface at boot =
time".)


5. Use editor vi to modify 'rc.inet1'(or 'rc') in the /etc/rc.d =
directory to
   insmod driver.  This file will be run at boot time. You just add a =
line
   at the beginning of 'rc.inet1'(or 'rc').

   Slackware:
      cd /etc/rc.d
      vi rc.inet1
         insmod /usr/src/linux/modules/rtl8139.o

   RedHat: Add a line at the beginning of 'rc' file.
      cd /etc/rc.d
      vi rc
         insmod /usr/src/linux/modules/rtl8139.o

6. Reboot the LINUX.

      reboot    ( or shutdown -r now )

   When system boots, the driver will be loaded. Then the driver will
   scan I/O port to see if a card is there.
   (You can run 'dmesg' to see the boot message.)

7. Run 'ifconfig' or 'netstat -i' to see if there is a interface 'eth0'.


Note:
   Make sure that your kernel is built with network, fast_ethernet and =
module
   support. Otherwise, you have to rebuild your kernel.

   (1) Go to /usr/src/linux directory
   (2) Run 'make menuconfig' or 'make config'
   (3) Mark the options list above.
   (4) Exit and rebuild your kernel.
       make dep;make clean;make zImage
       The file 'zImage' will be at /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/boot/zImage
   (5) Modify /etc/lilo.conf. (This file specify where kernel image is)
   (6) Run 'lilo'.
