Installing the Inition INI9100U drivers and linking them into the kernel is a relatively simple process. The procedure outlined here is based on the 2.0.30 kernel but may be expected to apply to other kernel versions. If you encounter inconsistancies with this procedure pattern your modifications to the configuration files after those lines that would apply to another host adapter. The INI9100U driver is contained in three files: ini9100u.h Header file defining structures and routines ini9100u.c Kernel interface routines ini9100u.lib Low level routines interacting directly with the host adapter hardware. The files that need to be modified are: hosts.c scsi_hosts array defining host adapters in kernel Config.in Kernel configuration template used by make config et al allowing you to select drivers to be included in the kernel. Makefile Refer to make(1). Here a numbered sequence of steps needed to incorporate the INI9100U driver into the kernel source. (yes some of them may be executed in any sequence.) 1. cp ini9100u.h ini9100u.c ini9100u.lib /usr/src/linux/drivers/scsi/ 2. cd /usr/src/linux/drivers/scsi 3. edit Config.in After the lines mainmenu_option next_comment comment 'SCSI low-level drivers' insert bool 'Initio INI9100U support' CONFIG_SCSI_INI9100U $CONFIG_SCSI 4. Edit Makefile before the line ifeq ($(CONFIG_SCSI_DEBUG),y) insert ifeq ($(CONFIG_SCSI_INI9100U),y) L_OBJS += ini9100u.o ini9100u.lib endif 5. edit hosts.c after the line #include "hosts.h" insert #ifdef CONFIG_SCSI_INI9100U #include "ini9100u.h" #endif after the lines static Scsi_Host_Template builtin_scsi_hosts[] = { insert #ifdef CONFIG_SCSI_INI9100U INI9100U, #endif 6. cd /usr/src/linux 7. Configure and make the kernel. See the directions that come with your distribution or /usr/src/linux/READMEDownload Driver Pack
After your driver has been downloaded, follow these simple steps to install it.
Expand the archive file (if the download file is in zip or rar format).
If the expanded file has an .exe extension, double click it and follow the installation instructions.
Otherwise, open Device Manager by right-clicking the Start menu and selecting Device Manager.
Find the device and model you want to update in the device list.
Double-click on it to open the Properties dialog box.
From the Properties dialog box, select the Driver tab.
Click the Update Driver button, then follow the instructions.
Very important: You must reboot your system to ensure that any driver updates have taken effect.
