Hello experts,
can somebody help me to configure wlan interface on me iBook
G4. I mean AirportExtreme. I'm not experienced at this.
I compiled the kernel and module modprobe it. And now i'm at the
extracting firmware from Apple drviver I try:
$14:12 #1# milan@krachsna [~/trunk/fwcutter]: ./fwcutter -w /macosx/System/Library/Extensions/AppleAirPort2.kext/Contents/MacOS/AppleAirPort2
but i got this error:
Driver version unknown or wrong input file.
The module was loaded without any errors. Can somebody write
some short instructions how to setup this. Maebe this can be
usefull for others which would like to the this driver.
Thanks for any infomation :)
