Building drives in Linux

Post by syb »

Good monring all.

I am looking for help on building drivers in linux. I have a 6 gb western digital hd as a slave in an old hp but linux doesn't support it through plug and play so i was wondering how can I build a driver for it. I am using linux redhat 8.0

p.s. if anyone looses there password on any Windows NT/2000/XP version i can hack it for them and re-set it. I am also able to get the username and unlock any accounts so just give me a line; my msn is syb_43@hotmail.com

Only thing I can suggest is try a different distro, I had the same issue with a network card back in the day when I wanted to upgrade from win98 to mandrake when Iceteks was hosted in my basement.
