pci card installation problem

Hi all,

i have a problem that i can not solve for the last two
weeks. 

I am trying to install 12 advantech pci1762 cards on
an advantech 4001 chassis. The sbc is advantech
pca-6003 (i dont remember the backplane number now).
And the OS is RedHat8.0

anyway,

i tried to install the latest version of comedi and
comedilib but didnt work. I downloaded the comedi-7.60
version but it didnt support my pci cards. So i
downloaded the comedi and the comedilib the advantech
company supplied on the net. (unfortunately they still
dont add the linux drivers to their packed cds)

I have followed the instructions on the red-hat notes
of comedi. It only installed 4 cards. I searched for a
solution and i found some answers on the comedilist. I
applied those recepies but didnt work. Else all this
compilation began to give error on kernel and thus on
comedi.

I re-installed redhat and comedi all over again. And
although nothing seems to be wrong (no errors) i cant
load the comedi devices. Even the modprobe doesnt seem
to see the pci1762 files. When i run the comedi-config
it says that it can not find the comedi.o file.

This has been a long description of what happened but
i have been on the user level on linux system since
now and i dont have a clue about kernel and kernel
compiling...

I would be very glad if i can receive some help.

best wishes,

Lalehan
