[hcflinux] HCF modem difficulties

[Jon Wyatt]

I have a diamond PCI HCF modem. I can get it working fine in my main Linux PC, which is kernel 2.4.2-2, i686. Great. This was using the appropriate download from mbsi.

I have bought a cheap compaq PC to use as a firewall and have loaded smoothwall onto it but it doesn;t like this modem. I can get smoothwall to dial out using an external modem but not this PCI one.
The problem is now that although I can download the rpm file from mbsi I can;t install it on my firewall because it doesn;t have rpm on it, or in fact a compiler so creating from source isn't possible.

Smoothwall is 2.2.20 i586.

Is there anywhere I can get hold of the binaries for this driver online in a tar format? I suppose I could get the appropriate rpm from the site, install it on my linux PC and then copy all the files across but I'd prefer to be able to get an installable package.

Thanks,

jon.
