Alright, so I downloaded the latest driver from: http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=13&PFid=5&Level=5&Conn=4&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false#2
But now how do I copy it to my linux box without network ? I tried with a sd card, but I do not know how to mount it ? I tried: mkdir /tmp/dummy mount /dev/sda5 /tmp/dummy -> failed invalid argument mount -t msdos /dev/sda5 /tmp/dummy -> failed: no such device However if I simply do 'cat /dev/sda5' it seems there is something...
