Hi,
I need to build a bnx ethernet driver for a new dl585 on SLES 10 SP1 running the latest VZ for SLES AMD64 kernel. I have the source for the driver from HP but it needs kernel source to compile against.
I've downloaded the latest sles vz nosrc.rpm but I'm a little lost as to where to find the linux.tar.bz2 and config.tar.bz2 that the kernel.spec is looking for. After reading the spec file I went ahead and installed the kernel-source from the distribution but still no files.
It is my understanding that I will need to create the kernel source directory that openvz would used to build this driver, thus I must use the kernel src rpm to recreate that structure. The nosrc rpm file does copy the spec and some files into $TOPDIR/SO
URCES but that's it.
Any assistance in pointing me to where those missing file might be or an alternative to what I'm trying would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Derrick Beery
