Problem while installing HostAp

[Sophal Sun]

I don't know if it's possible to remove the hostap but
I use to do like this .

delette Hostap + pcmcia directory ,

then decompress again the both archive and

 

Cd hostap-driver-0.2.0

just type make .

( don't  modify the Makefile  )

 

then copy all you need on the pcmcia-cs-3.2.7 directory

 

So on Hostap-0.2.0 directory 

cp hostap.mk /usr/src/pcmcia-cs-3.2.7

 

cd etc

cp * /usr/src/pcmcia-cs-3.2.7/etc

 

cd ..

cd modules

rm Makefiles  ( you have to remove the Makefile under Modules directory)

cp * /usr/src/pcmcia-cs-3.2.7/modules


 

 

Then go to you Pcmcia-cs-3.2.7 directory

for me :    /usr/src/pcmcia-cs-3.2.7

 

make config

 

make all

make install
