----------------------------

[sbarn@scott3 atmelwlandriver]# make clean

rm -f .config

Finished. Now run make install
[root@scott3 atmelwlandriver]# make install
...
depmod -aq
OK
[root@scott3 atmelwlandriver]#

Ok if above finished, following file should exist: /lib/modules/2.4.18-19.8.0/pcmcia/pcmf502r.o

Now time to go edit some files. Go to /etc/pcmcia and edit the file "config", cut and paste following
into that file:

device "pcmf502r"
  class "network" module "pcmf502r"

card "SMC 2632W V2 11 Mbps Wireless PCMCIA Card"
  manfid 0x01bf, 0xb301
  bind "pcmf502r"

This will inform PCMCIA that if device found with manfid 0x01bf, 0xb301 then the module pcmf502r should
be loaded etc.

Now restart pcmcia service:
[root@scott3 pcmcia]# /etc/init.d/pcmcia restart
Shutting down PCMCIA services: cardmgr modules.
Starting PCMCIA services: modules cardmgr.

Insert the card.

Inspect /var/log/messages to see the output of the cardmgr, it should be something like this:

Oct  7 11:56:38 mercury cardmgr[4106]: socket 0: SMC 2632W V2 11 Mbps Wireless PCMCIA Card
Oct  7 11:56:38 mercury cardmgr[4106]: executing: 'modprobe pcmf502r'

You can now set up an interface for the card using Red Hat's network configuration tool on the 
System Settings menu.
