The following example installation is for a Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 Update 4
compatible kernel, where the
compatible kernel, where the
/etc/redhat-release
file indicates another
distribution. If you are a
bash
or
sh
user, type:
# export IPATH_DISTRO=2.6.9_U4
Follow this with your normal
rpm
install commands, or run (as root):
# /usr/src/infinipath/drivers/make-install.sh
You can examine the list of supported distributions for this InfiniPath release by
looking at this script:
looking at this script:
/usr/src/infinipath/drivers/build-guards.sh
This is the current list of strings that can be passed to
IPATH_DISTRO
. The
distributions to which each string is applied are shown in brackets:
2.6.22_FC6 [Fedora Core 6, 2.6.22 kernel]
2.6.18_EL5 [RHEL5, Scientific Linux 5.0, CentOS 5.0]

If you try to install on an unsupported distribution or an unsupported
distribution/kernel pair, you will see an error message. This example shows a
case where 4.3 is still in
distribution/kernel pair, you will see an error message. This example shows a
case where 4.3 is still in
/etc/redhat-release
, although the kernel is Scientific
Linux 4.4:
# rpm -Uv infinipath-kernel-2.2-3187.376_rhel4_psc.x86_64.rpm
