Back Hi,
I just installed the Redhat version 9 from the CD's. After that I didn't install any packages or kernel source code.
Thanks,
Rajesh.

Hi all,
I have installed Red Hat Linux 9 on my Laptop (Compaq nx5000). It has not recognized my network card
which is Broadcom 440x. I have downloaded the driver from www.broadcom.com and have gone through
the README file for instructions.
1. Installed the source RPM package using
rpm -ivf bcm4400-3.0.8-1.src.rpm
2. cd /usr/src/redhat 3. rpmbuild -bb SPECS/bcm4400.spec
I am stuck here, when I type this command it complains about gcc not found. So, I have installed gcc-3.2.2-5.
After I installed the gcc I am getting lots of compiling errors when I run
rpmbuild -bb SPECS/bcm4400.spec
Linux gurus please help me to get this working.
Thanks,
Rajesh.
I assume you have installed the Kernel Source code?
