Hi,

Got it to work:

Using 2.6.11.2 (might work on earlier kernels too)

Extract the kernel source into /usr/src/linux-2.6.11.2
cd /usr/src
ln -s linux-2.6.11.2 linux

download:
http://www.syskonnect.com/syskonnect/support/driver/zip/linux/install-7_09.tar.bz2
or go here to find it
http://www.syskonnect.com/syskonnect/support/driver/

mkdir /usr/src/marvell_yukon
put it in /usr/src/marvell_yukon
cd /usr/src/marvell_yukon
tar jxf install-7_09.tar.bz2
cd DriverInstall
./install.sh
choose 3) generate patch
cd /usr/src/linux
cat /usr/src/marvell_yukon/DriverInstall/sk98lin_v7.09_2.6.11_patch |
patch -p1
cd /usr/src/linux

***
NOW, for the kernels 2.6.10+, this is broken! Its not hard to fix,
however, this is just a hack, I'm not sure if I'm doing it right, I got
the hints from:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-amd64/2005/03/msg00269.html
http://lists.debian.org/debian-amd64/2005/03/msg00279.html

Patch is attached.
***

cd linux
make menuconfig
* configure it - key thing for this is Devices->Net->1000->Yukon
(Module) *
make
make install modules_install

finally, modprobe -a sk98lin works!!
