Is this driver loaded as a kernel module? If so, you only need to
rebuild the module against your target kernel and distribute the new
module to the various machines.
If it's a builtin driver, then it'll be a little more involved. If
distributing the new kernel is not feasible have a look at KSplice
like features for hot-patching your kernel.

Os : Debian 6 Kernel Version : 2.6.32
I have been recently working with Linux application and now we
have some
little hard-disk issues where my motherboard doesn't support AHCI
through bios. On various Google searches i found that i can force
Linux
kernel force load driver to AHCI mode.
i have just now started my kernel walk through and i am very new for
handling issues.
THS IS THE QUIRK WHICH I FOUND WILL WORK
:http://tartarus.org/~ds/quirk-ich-force-ahci.patch
<http://tartarus.org/%7Eds/quirk-ich-force-ahci.patch>
<http://tartarus.org/%7Eds/quirk-ich-force-ahci.patch>
I download the kernel and its respective headers and did a complete
kernel build.since its Debian updated it in the client machine and
found
it was working as expected
linux-image-2.6.32_2.6.32-2_i386.deb -- 26MB
linux-firmware-image_2.6.32-2_all.deb -- 5k
but now i need to apply the patch in all my client machines which i
located n remote locations where 26 mb in the network is very high
Is there a way where only this quirk can be updated in client in a
reduce size like some KO file update.
Is this the only way way to update the driver?? need some
guidelines on
the same.
i also saw :http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/add-rem...ernel-modules/
<http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/add-remove-list-linux-kernel-modules/>
in my case can someone guide me with some pointers how this has to
be done
Please guide
