All, On one of my systems, I need to build a custom kernel with some special security modules built in (which I have already completed) and want to build in support for the Intel 1000 Gigabit cards. Has anyone successfully done this? I have downloaded the sources from Intel, but they are not providing any support nor instructions for them. Any help that can be given, I would appreciate. ============================================ Drew J.

The instructions are in the Readme file in the archive under "Building and Installation". You compile the module indepentantly of the kernel: Change to the driver src directory: cd e1000-x.x.x/src/ Compile the driver module: make install The binary will be installed as: /lib/modules/[KERNEL_VERSION]/kernel/drivers/net/e1000.o -- Simon Oliver
