Kernel Version and Driver installations
by Anand Iyer 14 Jan '02

14 Jan '02

I was tying to install Linux on a real time system (via an external CD-ROM drive with DOS device driver only. So copy files to Hard disk using DOS and then install using the boot diskette. Linux 7.0 official RH pack was loaded. When we loaded the systems device drivers used for real time data acquisition using, we found tat the modules did not get installed due to incorrect kernel version. We had 2.2.16-22 and 2.2.12-18 was required. We got another version of driver for 2.4.2, I loaded the kernel from PCQ (july-Aug 2001) but the PCQ kernel was 2.4.2-2 and even this did not work. The message that I got was that the driver required kernel 2.4.2 while we had 2.4.2-2 installed. Why is this so? When drivers are made for one kernel version then why should it not work with a higher kernel version. Anand
