mine came with a cd having compiled modules for redhat and suse,
plus source files for compiling elsewhere, for 2.4.x kernels.

(of course, i can't get bf24 to boot on my system; the 2.2 boots
fine, but i can't get it to load any 3w-xxxx module. so...)

after unrolling the source from the drivers cd-rom, i

	apt-get install kernel-headers-2.4.18

and then tried "make" which yielded four missing header items:

	gcc  -D__KERNEL__ -DMODULE  -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -fno-strict-aliasing -DMODVERSIONS -I.  -I/usr/src/linux/drivers/scsi -I/usr/src/linux/include -include /usr/src/linux/include/linux/modversions.h -c -o 3w-xxxx.o 3w-xxxx.c
	3w-xxxx.c:208: sd.h: No such file or directory
	3w-xxxx.c:209: scsi.h: No such file or directory
	3w-xxxx.c:210: hosts.h: No such file or directory
	3w-xxxx.c:3636: scsi_module.c: No such file or directory
	make: *** [3w-xxxx.o] Error 1

each of them was "header.h" format (as opposed to the
library-savvy <header.h> format), leading me to believe it's got
nothing to do with absent kernel header files...

plus, dpkg -S /filename.[ch]/ turned up no results for sd.h,
hosts.h and scsi_module.c, and only one scsi.h (in libc6-dev).

if they can get this to work in morphix, there's gotta be a way
to get it to work under woody, right?

Oh No ! I have DELETED MY /TMP BY MISTAKE. How do I recreate

	drwxrwxrwt  8 root  root   2048 Jan  7 13:34 /tmp
Notice the permisions! As root, do these:
	# cd /
	# mkdir tmp
	# chmod 1777 tmp
	# chown root.root tmp
That's all there is to it.
