.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
script uses the
|
|
.Xr ndiscvt 8
|
|
utility and other tools to generate a
|
|
.Fx
|
|
loadable driver module
|
|
and a static ELF object module from a
|
|
.Tn Windows\[rg]
|
|
NDIS driver, for use with the
|
|
.Xr ndis 4
|
|
compatibility module.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
script is interactive and contains its own help section.
|
|
Unless the paths to both files are supplied on the command line,
|
|
the script will prompt the user for the
|
|
.Pa .INF
|
|
and
|
|
.Pa .SYS
|
|
files needed to generate the
|
|
.Fx
|
|
driver module.
|
|
The script will also prompt for
|
|
any firmware or other external files needed.
