NAME

ndisgen - generate a FreeBSD driver module from a Windows(R)

NDIS driver
distribution

SYNOPSIS

ndisgen [/path/to/INF /path/to/SYS]

DESCRIPTION

The ndisgen script uses the ndiscvt(8) utility and other

tools to generate a FreeBSD loadable driver module and a static ELF object

module from
a Windows(R) NDIS driver, for use with the ndis(4) compati

bility module.

The ndisgen script is interactive and contains its own help

section.
Unless the paths to both files are supplied on the command

line, the
script will prompt the user for the .INF and .SYS files

needed to generate the FreeBSD driver module. The script will also prompt

for any
firmware or other external files needed.
