2. Click the Driver button.
3. Click the button for your OS:
Driver for RedHat
Driver for SUSE
4. Double-click the folder for your OS version.
5. Manually copy the driver .tar.gz file from the folder to your PC’s hard drive.
6. Open a terminal window and untar the driver file. Below is an example:
tar zxvf RH-306010003.tar.gz
7. Insert a blank diskette, a writable CD, or attach a USB memory stick to your
PC.
8. Copy the driver file to the diskette, CD, or USB stick.
Check the driver’s ReadMe file for important information.
