How Rock 3A use usb wireless adapter

#1

System：Ubuntu 20.04 TLS
USB Wireless Adapter：COMFAST CF-WU711U

use lsusb, I can get:
Bus 001 Device 003: ID: 148f:7601 Ralink Tecknology, Corp. MT7601U Wireless Adapter

I want build a driver for my usb wireless adapter.
I download source code from github https://github.com/terence-deng/mt7601u.
When I build it with a command “make”. Terminal return an error “-bash: make: command not found”.

Question:
How I install a build system offline.

You need:

  • make, compiler, … (“build essential”)
  • linux kernel headers (if they exist)
  • luck or advanced knowledge

or download https://www.armbian.com/rock-3a/ where this will just work.
