Compile and link the driver. The following example shows compiling and linking for a 32-bit architecture:
% cc -D_KERNEL -c qotd_3.c % ld -r -o qotd_3 qotd_3.o
Make sure you are user root when you install the driver.
Copy the driver binary to the /tmp directory as discussed in Building and Installing the Template Driver.
# cp qotd_3 /tmp # ln -s /tmp/qotd_3 /usr/kernel/drv/qotd_3
Copy the configuration file to the kernel driver area of the system.
# cp qotd_3.conf /usr/kernel/drv
In a separate window, enter the following command:
% tail -f /var/adm/messages
Make sure you are user root when you load the driver. Use the add_drv(1M) command to load the driver:
# add_drv qotd_3
You should see the following messages in the window where you are viewing /var/adm/messages:
date time machine pseudo: [ID 129642 kern.info] pseudo-device: qotd_30 date time machine genunix: [ID 936769 kern.info] qotd_30 is /pseudo/qotd_3@0
