Want to install a Serial IO Card, how do i compile the drivers for Tinycore64

[bosch68]

Hi all
I have tinycore64 v14 running on a motherboard that is uefi only and with no serial and parallel ports. (Still need them )
On opensuse 15 i just compile the driver and it gets installed.
How do i compile the driver on tinycore64 and have it install at boot so i can print to a serial printer.
Any help will be greatly appreciated
thanks in advance

Isn't the generic serial driver compiled in, or are you speaking of a specific driver?

Yes these drivers are for a specific serial card the standard serial drivers do not work as they are for serial onboard ports
which do not exist on the new motherboards
attached is a zip file of the source for the serial card
How do i compile and install this driver into Tinycore64
thanks

If you search these forums on "prepare kernel source" there's been two threads in the last week about compiling out of tree drivers.

Prepare the kernel source
Create a symlink /lib/modules/$(shell  uname -r)/build/ --> kernel source
Unzip driver source
"make"
