+ A. Compiler command:
+
+ A-1: For normal single processor kernel
+ "gcc -DMODULE -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux/net/inet -Wall
+ -Wstrict-prototypes -O6 -c dmfe.c"
+
+ A-2: For single processor and enable kernel module version function
+ "gcc -DMODULE -DMODVERSIONS -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux/net/inet
+ -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O6 -c dmfe.c"
+
+ A-3: For multiple processors(SMP) and enable the module version function
+ "gcc -D__SMP__ -DMODULE -DMODVERSIONS -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux
+ /net/inet -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O6 -c dmfe.c"
+
+
+ B. The following steps teach you how to active DM9102 board:
+
+ 1. Used the upper compiler command to compile dmfe.c
+
+ 2. Insert dmfe module into kernel
+ "insmod dmfe" ;;Auto Detection Mode (Suggest)
+ "insmod dmfe mode=0" ;;Force 10M Half Duplex
+ "insmod dmfe mode=1" ;;Force 100M Half Duplex
+ "insmod dmfe mode=4" ;;Force 10M Full Duplex
+ "insmod dmfe mode=5" ;;Force 100M Full Duplex
+
+ 3. Config a dm9102 network interface
+ "ifconfig eth0 172.22.3.18"
+ ^^^^^^^^^^^ Your IP address
+
+ 4. Active the IP routing table. For some distributions, it is not
+ necessary. You can type "route" to check.
+
+ "route add default eth0"
+
+
+ 5. Well done. Your DM9102 adapter actived now.
+
+
+ C. Object files description:
+ 1. dmfe_rh61.o: For Redhat 6.1
+
+ If you can make sure your kernel version, you can rename
+ to dmfe.o and directly use it without re-compiling.
