Morning/Evening everybody.

I bought myself the promise Supertrak 8350 Card. Very nice card (I think) if i could get it to work.

Well the problem is that the drivers wont install. (Or from what i have tried.) I have never had to install 3rd party drivers before.

Well i have tried dowloading 3 differernt OPEN Source drivers from the promise website. After i untar them. I run

# make KERNEL_SOURCE_DIR=/usr/src/linux/

I wish that would work. this is the output of my file. And i dont know enough about linux to fix it yet.
Could Someone Please help. Or perhaps put me in the right direction.

Code:

make V=1  CC=cc LD=ld ARCH=i386 -C /usr/src/linux SUBDIRS=`pwd` modules
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.22-hardened-r8'

        echo "  ERROR: Kernel configuration is invalid.";               \
        echo "         include/linux/autoconf.h or include/config/auto.conf are missing.";      \
        echo "         Run 'make oldconfig && make prepare' on kernel src to fix it.";  \
