As usual: Drivers not released by this project are not support by us. The package you were using does not originate from our website, but from the Ralink website.

hi~~i'm using rt73-cvs-daily.tar.gz instead this time,but it occurs the following problems,what is the problem is and how can i slove it?

include/asm/hardware.h:16:31: asm/arch/hardware.h: No such file or directory
make[2]: *** [/11/rt73-cvs-2009040104/Module/rtmp_main.o] Error 1
make[1]: *** [_module_/11/rt73-cvs-2009040104/Module] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/utuLinux2.6.24/kernel-2.6.24'
rt73.ko failed to build!
make: *** [module] Error 1
[root@localhost Module]#

and there are a lot of similar mistakes in the makefile process like this:
include/asm/hardware.h:16:31: asm/arch/hardware.h: No such file or directory

PS:i have no sub-directory named "arch" under include/asm/ at all in my kernel resource directory,there only are a lot arch-xxx sub-directory under include/asm/~~

how can i slove this problem?thanks~~

Your kernel sources have not been properly initialized.
You have to do "make prepare" inside your kernel sources.

Also note that the the Project restructuring announcement

thank you IvD,it worked,i have complied the drivers scuccessfully,although there are a lot of warnings~~why i have to make prepare before compling? what's the main funtion of make prepare? in what condition i must make prepare first?

Cleanly unpacked kernel sources require 'make prepare' this will generate some files and folders required for compilation.
