[Madwifi-users] modules installation problem

[<te...@vi...>]

 Hi there!

I=E2=80=99m trying to hack the Netgear WGT634U and I followed
the=20
instructions as shown on the link http://pdos.csail.mit.
edu/roofnet/doku.php?id=3Dwgthacking.

I used the 1.4.1.13 version
of the=20
WGT634U image http://kbserver.netgear.com/kb_web_files/n101238.
asp
I=20
have done all the patches, downloads and istruction step by step.

During the madwifi compilation I obtain two object files: ath_hal.o
and=20
ath_pci.o, but, after I copy them into the router at the path
/lib/modules, when I install the modules on my wgt-kernel I obtain a
segmentation error during the ath_pci.o installation.

Installation=20
steps:
1) copy the two object ath_hal.o and ath_pci.o in the
/lib/modules/usb =E2=80=9Cown made=E2=80=9D directory

2) uninstall the old modules,
taking care about the order and priority

error, I hope in your help to escape from this doom.

Tnx in advice
