Linux 7.0 OS.

Host drivers are not stand-alone RPMs that you need to
install.
|
Host drivers are a separate, stand-alone package (for example, an
individual RPM) that you must install after the OS is
installed.

Embedded host drivers must be activated. You must install
userspace_RPM to activate the host
