Hi all,

I have made some modifications in the madwifi-0.9.2 code and i want to build
this code on a node. Can anyone help me how to build madwifi-0.9.2 driver on
the orbit nodes. Is there any available image on which i can build the
driver. What all will i need to install for building it. i went through the
tutorial about building drivers but the linux headers and linux-kbuild which
it says to install doesnot seem to be available when i do apt-get.

If someone can help me with compiling any other version of madwifi (0.9.3
series or 0.9.4) , that would also do.

Thanks in advance.

Puneet
