[etherlab-users] etherlab instal on RHEL 5

[ronaldo.mercado at diamond.ac.uk]

Hello,

Could you tell more about your installation on RHEL 5 ?

I tried to compile using the kernel provided and the compilation failed.

The machine I am using it on is running kernel 2.6.18-164.11.1.el5PAE #1
SMP

I would like to use the EtherCAT master with either the generic module
or the e1000

I remember part of the module compilation failing because of a macro
"for_each_netdev" which may have been introduced in newer kernels.

Thanks,

Ronaldo
