    Please check if you have loadable module support enabled in kernel config.

    And the wireless lan support, too,

    in zd1211 driver dir, make clean, and then make.

    I tested again, but there is no compile problem.

    hi,hippo

    I enabled loadable module support and the wireless lan support in kernel config.

    When compiled zd1211 drivers have no problem.

    but it can not revices any APs.

    I think is the USB ISP1362 driver have some bug.

    I don&#39;t have DE2 board. And can&#39;t help to debug the driver.

    If you want , you may try to enable some debug messages.

    The defulat shell SASH, has a simple mount. You should be able to use it.

    If you still want NFS mount, use the "mount" in busybox.
