down3.bin.5.32.0
  Firmware version 5.32.0 for TI-based Edgeports and the io_ti driver,
  prepared for use with recent Linux kernels (e.g: 2.6.27.8) which store
  pre-compiled firmware images in /lib/firmware/edgeport.  To use this:
       cd /lib/firmware/edgeport
       mv down3.bin down3.bin.orig    # Keep a copy of your original
       mv down3.bin.5.3.0 down3.bin
       chmod 777 down3.bin

  This firmware is downloaded to TI-based Edgeports by the usb/io_ti driver
  each time a supported Edgeport device is plugged in.

io_ti.ko.1
  Binary of io_ti driver version 0.7-peb1, patched to add support for
  the TI version of the Edgeport 8 and compiled for the Intel (i686)
  version of the RHEL-4 2.6.9-78.0.13.ELsmp kernel.

  To use this with an i686 2.6.9-78.0.13.ELsmp kernel:
      cd /lib/modules/2.6.9-ELsmp
      mv io_ti.ko /tmp           # Move the original driver
      mv io_ti.ko.1 io_ti.ko     # Install the new one

  Reboot or:
      unplug the Edgeport 8 TI
      rmmod io_ti                # Unload current io_ti from memory
      plug in the Edgeport 8 TI  # This should automatically load the new
                                 # io_ti driver

  Check the /var/log/messages file (e.g: fgrep io_ti /var/log/messages).
  If the new driver has loaded successfully you should see:
      io_ti.c: Edgeport USB Serial Driver v0.7-peb1

EP8_for_linux2.6.9.tgz
  Includes replacement files for the 2.6.9 kernel included with RHEL-4
  (kernel-2.6.9-42.0.10.EL.src.rpm from RedHat) to add support for the
  TI version of the Edgeport 8.  Included are these files

     io_fw_down3.h           (version 4.80.0)
     io_ti.c                 (version 0.7-peb1)
     io_ti.h
     io_usbvend.h

  Copy these over the corresponding files in drivers/usb/serial
  directory of the 2.6.9 kernel sources, then, from the head
  of the source directory (e.g: /usr/src/linux) type:
     make modules
     make modules_install

edgeport_8_2.6.13.3.patch

  A patch for the Edgeport io_ti driver that adds support for the 
  Edgeport/8 and Edgeport/8s.  This patch is from the 2.6.13.3 kernel 
  but should apply to kernels 2.6.10 and later.  This is a reverse 
  patch, so apply it with this command in the top level of the kernel
  sources:
     patch -R -p1 < edgeport_8_2.6.13.3.patch
