Driver Update Disk ( DUD ) Method --------------------------------- The latest driver can be installed during the installation of the OS itself. First extract the contents of the file mraid [driver version] Although the DUD disk contains a few very small files, the image is in 1,440k image format. This requires that you use the provided "rwfloppy" utility to convert the image to floppy. Rwfloppy utility: Note: Rwfloppy expects the standard 8.3 format for file names. Therefore the maximum file name length can not exceed seven characters and must include a three character extension. Thus if a file is named dud7.0-1.15.img, then it should be renamed to 115.img or redhat.img, etc. rwfloppy -w <filename> writes 1440k image to a dos format floppy. You will need to use the second method to convert the DUD image so that it is usable during the Linux install. When installing the OS, type 'linux dd' when the cd boots. This will prompt you to insert the driver update disk ( DUD ). At this time insert the driver update disk ( DUD )and press OK to continue. The driver should load immediately. You can use <ctrl><alt><F2> to verify that the latest driver is being loaded. After this step continue with install as normal.Download Driver Pack
