Hi,
In the makefile add
SUBDIRS += pathname/ur_driver
DRIVERS += pathname/ur_driver/ur_driver.o
and if you have a configuration file add it in the corresponding config.in
file
source pathname/ur_driver/config.in
and your initialization function should be preceded by
__init ur_init_func( );
kernel 2.4 takes care of calling ur initialization function when it is
preceded by __init

Hi,
I know how to add a driver as a module. If I want the driver to be inbuilt
into the kernel, what steps should I follow. What all modifications
should I make?
Thanks and regards,
Sathish.J
