I did what you say but it doesn works

Im tried to compile de hostap driver for my IMXL card in a embedded Linux, when i put
this instruction:

make KERNELPATH=/home/monica/imxl_project/gnu_tools_mxl_update/linux


the result was:

Makefile:46: WARNING: No kernel PCMCIA support found and PCMCIA_PATH is not defined
Makefile:53: WARNING: Linux wireless extensions, CONFIG_NET_RADIO, not enabled in the kernel

and when i put:

Most probable cause for this is modified kernel headers.
You will need to install module file (driver/modules/hostap*.{,k}o) manually.

I really don't know what to do, please somebody help me. what do i need to change to the

Yes and yes.

Assuming you have a working kernel tree that has been built for your
target, it should be enough to just run "make KERNEL_PATH=<path to the
root of the kernel source tree>" in Host AP driver directory.
