[etherlab-users] etherlab-users Digest, Vol 115, Issue 11

[Justin Hunt]

Thank you for the response!

I am currently trying to install EtherCAT Master and I am running into a
problem. When trying to configure and build using the command:

./*configure --disable-8139too --enable-e1000e*

I get the error:

*checking for kernel for e1000e driver... configure: error: kernel 4.2 not
available for e1000e driver!*

Do I need to use a different kernel, or is there a work around to this
problem?
