INSTALLATION
We assume that you got a floppy disk or the files from ftp decompressed.

Floppy Disk/ftp archive (may be you have to become root)
 - mount -t ext2 /dev/fd0H1440 /mnt
   Now you will find a /mnt directory with the above described structure.
 - Copy the contents of the floppy/ftp archive into the appropriate
   directories on your system.
 - Load the driver:                  insmod Driver/smii_module
   Hint: You can add this line to your rc.local script 
 - To remove driver:                 rmmod smii_module
 - To check if driver is present:    lsmod
 - Make a device entry 				 mknod /dev/smii c 40 0
   Note: You have to use the same major number as used in the module. (Take a look in Space.c)
 - use ranlib on the library
 - Test it with smp

If you need to change the major number refer to the REDAME in
the Driver directory. If you need the driver for a different
kernel version than 1.1.62 refer to the README in the Driver
directory.
