Summary0001034: DUD for kmod-mlx4-4.0-3.el8_2.elrepo.x86_64.rpm
DescriptionHi,

This is my first time making a request. I hope I have the right category

I installed kmod-mlx4-4.0-3.el8_2.elrepo.x86_64.rpm and it works great! Thanks for that.

I would like to be able to install the driver as part of the OS install so I can automate and/or use the GUI to configure the ethernet settings.

If there is a guide on how to do this somewhere, I would be happy to help out. The docs I have found so far were not great.

Thanks

Have you seen our blog?

There's a link to a tutorial video which I think is quite helpful:

@toracat: Thanks for the links. After rereading what I submitted I should clarify that I was looking for a guide on how to make DUD's. I was looking to help out where I can. Any chance you have some links for DUD creation? I spent some time on it yesterday but for some reason I could not get it working.

@HankTheCrank,

Sorry for the confusion!

We have made available the script we use at our github repository:

https://github.com/elrepo/elrepo-scripts

To create the DUD, simply drop the kmod RPM and SRPM files into a dir, and run the script like so:

mkdd.sh kmod-foo-<release>-<version>.rpm

Hope that helps

@pperry,
Thanks! I finally had a need to make another dud and it worked like a charm. A couple of notes for others who, like me, are new to this:

1. Install createrepo
2. Install mkisofs

After these are installed, you are ready to use the script.
