Hi all,I'm trying to compile the wanpipe drivers from Sangoma for use with my pfSense box. I found a wanpipe-custom.tbz package available on what I assume is one of the sites in the network for packages for pfSense. The problem that I found was that, after installing, I couldn't seem to get the modules loaded. Now, I am running pfSense on a Soekris net4801 so I'm using a non-default kernel. I'm assuming this is the reason the modules won't load into the running kernel, because the modules were likely compiled for the default pfSense kernel. I don't know a whole lot about FreeBSD, comming from a linux background, so I could be wrong. Please point me in the right direction if I am :-) Anyways... I'd like to build the kernel modules for my platform, but I don't know how. I can't imagine I'm gonna accomplish this on my Soekris box (as it's a slow CPU and I've only got 128 meg ram in it). So I installed the Developers ISO for 1.0.1 onto a spare machine/image. The first thing that seems to happen is that the hard drive installation immediately goes into bootstrap mode, downloading all the latest kernel sources and pfSense patches and applying them. My fear is that this is going to provide kernel modules for a newer kernel than the one I have installed on the Soekris box. So, how do I go about building/installing the kernel modules for the wrap/soekris kernel that comes with pfSense? How do I get a build environment for that release? -peace
from memory, /home/pfsense/tools/builder_scripts/build_embedded.sh is the script to build an update. This will compile everything and give you a tgz file that you can upgrade your firmware with via the web gui. You would probably need to make changes to the kernel config file. do post a howto if you get it to work :-) sai ps. I dont know too much about this FreeBSD stuff either! --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
