Well, here's what I've done so far: 1) Copied the netwg311.sys and wg311v2.inf files frome the Windows 2000 folder from the distribution CD-ROM. 2) Ran ndiscvt -i /home/ecrist/wg311v2.inf -s /home/ecrist/netwg311.sys -o ndis_driver_data.h as root 3) Copied ndis_driver_data.h to the /usr/src/sys directory. 4) Added the following lines to my custom kernel config (GROG) options NDISAPO device ndis 5) Ran (from /usr/src) make buildkernel KERNCONF=GROG 6) Ran (from /usr/src) make installkernel KERNCONF=GROG 7) Rebooted (no ndis0 listing in ifconfig output) Any idea what I did wrong?
