cd /usr/src/{redhat,OpenLinux,turbo,packages,rpm ..}
rpm -bb SPECS/bcm5700.spec
or
rpmbuild -bb SPECS/bcm5700.spec (for RPM version 4.x.x)
Note that the RPM path is different for different Linux distributions.
3. Install the newly built package (driver and man page):
rpm -ivh RPMS/i386/bcm5700-.i386.rpm
Note that the --force option is needed if installing on Red Hat 7.2, 7.3, 2.1AS and 
others that already contain an older version of the driver.
The driver will be installed in the following path:
2.2.x kernels:
/lib/modules//net/bcm5700.o
2.4.x kernels:
/lib/modules//kernel/drivers/net/bcm5700.o
2.4.x kernels with bcm5700 as an addon driver (e.g. Red Hat 7.3, 2.1AS):
/lib/modules//kernel/drivers/net/bcm/bcm5700.o
or
/lib/modules//kernel/drivers/addon/bcm5700/bcm5700.o
2.6.0 kernels:
/lib/modules//kernel/drivers/net/bcm5700.ko
4. Load the driver:

If loading the driver on Red Hat 7.3, 2.1 AS or other newer kernels with the tg3 driver, 
refer to the "Removing tg3 Driver" in DISTRIB.TXT before loading the driver.
