• Step 1: Find Windows XP driver, install it inside Windows XP, find the files for your network adapter:
  • .sys file
  • .inf file

  Notes: How did you create the INF?

  If it is a Windows-registry export converted from unicode to ASCII it is correct, if it is just the Windows-INF that came with the driver it is wrong and the driver runs with minimal default settings without using the INF at all.

  Sometimes this might work, but most times it does not!

• Step 2: Install Genmac Wrapper. Read the list of supported cards and find one that is a close match to yours - same chipset for example or the known fact that XYZ also supports ABC on other platforms. Force Genmac installer to install driver for similar chipset, example: 14E4:4311

  Add to config.sys (then reboot):

  SET GENMAC_INSTALL_IDLIST=14E4:4311
  

• Step 3: ..
• Step 10: .. Install XWLAN widget.

// X2

while trying with the EEE this has been used to install the LAN and WLAN drivers with GENMAC; usually unsupported so far.

First you should have the "new" drviers, .nif files and a according genm32w.os2 file. (I don't knowhow to manage this, Hansdampf 2 did it in this case - Thansk a lot!!)

Then you can go on like this:

• Open an OS/2 Window to install a "nearby" adapter that is already supported with GENMAC 2.2
• Force the GENAMC to install the given Drivers with GENMAC 2.2:

  SET GENMAC_INSTALL_IDLIST=168C:001B 1969:1049
  

• Change to the warpin directory of eCS ( c:\ecs\install\warpin ) Install Genmac 2.2 from the command line:

  warpin.exe p:\eeepc\genmac220.wpi (the place where you have the genmac220.wpi file)

• Copied the "new" drivers to
  • c:\ecs\system\genmac\driver
  • c:\IBMCOM\MACS
• Copied the "new" file genm32w.os2 to the two destinations too
• Copied the ".nif" files to
  • c:\ecs\system\genmac\nif
  • c:\IBMCOM\MACS
• open the ecs Lan Adapter configuration and select both of the new drivers that should be listed there. Used the WLAN as Adapter 0, the LAN as Adapter 1, used for WLAN only TCPIP, for LAN TCPIP and NETBIOS over TCPIP
• Reboot
• Installed XWLAN 310 as it is described in the according manual
