Hi, all.
  I am porting prism54-1.1 into my embeded system with kernel 2.4.18.
  Firstly I patched WE from 13~17 to my kernel, then copy firmware_class.c 
and firmware.h from 2.4.30 to the project of prism54-1.1. After compilation 
, I can insmod firmware_class.o and prism54.o to my system without problem, 
but when ifconfig eth2 up, the error message POP out as following: 
 # ifconfig eth2 up
eth2: islpci_open()
eth2: resetting device...
eth2: uploading firmware...
name=isl3890, device=00: 01.0
call_usermodehelper return -13
prism54: request_firmware() failed for 'isl3890'
eth2: could not upload firmware ('isl3890')
SIOCSIFFLAGS: Permission denied
 and I found call_usermodehelper need the application path char 
hotplug_path[256] = "/sbin/hotplug"; but my kernel has no this hotplug file, 
will someone give me some ideas? thank you very much. any help is gread 
appreciated
