          NAME
               insdriver - install kernel driver files

          SYNOPSIS
               insdriver [ -r root_directory ] [ -d driver_directory ]
               [ -n driver_name ]

          DESCRIPTION
               The insdriver command creates the kernel module directory,
               copies the driver files into it, and optionally, executes
               /etc/kconfig to configure and build a kernel.

               By default, the configuration directory is /etc/conf; this
               may be overridden by setting the environment variable $CONF
               or by using the -r option on the command line.  Setting
               $CONF will cause the configuration directory to become
               $CONF/etc/conf.  This requires that the directory /etc/conf
               exist in $CONF.

               For a description of the configuration directory and kernel
               module files, see chapter 3 of the Integrated Software
               Development Guide.

               The driver directory is the directory currently containing
               the driver files.  If not supplied on the command line,
               insdriver queries for the driver directory.

               If the driver name is not supplied on the command line,
               insdriver queries for the name.  This name must be the name
               of the driver object file (.o file) and is the name that
               will be used in the system file modules list.

               insdriver queries for a one-line description of the driver.
               This description is entered in
               $CONF/etc/conf/pack.d/description for use by the kconfig
               command.

               After the files in the driver directory are copied to
               $CONF/etc/conf/pack.d/driver_name and the description file
               is updated, insdriver queries for kernel build and, on
               verification, executes /etc/kconfig.

             Examples
                    insdriver -r /tmp/tstconf -d mousedir -n mouse

               The driver files in the directory mousedir will be copied to
               /tmp/tstconf/etc/conf/pack.d/mouse.

          FILES
               $CONF/kconfig.d/description
