1. In the directory that contains the source driver file,
qla2xxx-src-vx.xx.xx.xx.11.x-k.tgz, issue the following
commands:
# tar -xzvf qla2xxx-src-vx.xx.xx.xx.11.x-k.tgz
# cd qla2xxx-x.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx-k
where x.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx is the applicable version number.
2. Build and install the driver modules from the source code by executing the
build.sh script as follows:
# ./extras/build.sh install

 Builds the driver .ko files.
 Copies the .ko files to the appropriate
/lib/modules/3.x.../updates directory.
 Adds the appropriate directive in the modprobe.conf file (if
applicable).
3. Manually load the driver for Linux.
 Edit the /etc/modprobe.d/unsupported_modules file to make
the following change:
allow_unsupported_modules 1 (replace 0 by 1)
 To load the driver using modprobe, issue the following command:
# modprobe -v qla2xxx
 To unload the driver using modprobe, issue the following command:
# modprobe -r qla2xxx
