Driver Installation Driver installation for Linux 1. Insert USB flash disk & WL-227N NIC before booting 2. Boot Linux system and login 3. Create path [Wireless]: mkdir /etc/Wireless 4. Mount USB Hard Disk: mount /dev/sda1 /mnt 5. Copy tar file to Linux from USB Hard Disk: cp /mnt/2008_0812_RT2880_iNIC_v1.1.8.0.tar.bz2 /etc/Wireless/ 6. Decompress tar file to /etc/Wireless/, and it will generate a directory [2008_0812_RT2880_iNIC_v1.1.8.0]: tar -jxvf /etc/Wireless/2008_0812_RT2880_iNIC_v1.1.8.0.tar.bz2 7.
