-  * Supported:  This command lists the wireless stacks and wireless drivers which the script currently supports.  If the stack or driver you want is not listed then airdriver-ng does not currently support it.  These are NOT the stacks or drivers installed on your system. +  * Supported:  Lists the wireless stacks and wireless drivers which the script currently supports.  If the stack or driver you want is not listed then airdriver-ng does not currently support it.  These are NOT the stacks or drivers installed on your system. 
-  * Kernel: This command lists any wireless stack or wireless driver which has been compiled directly into the kernel itself.  Use this if you wish to determine if a particular driver is already compiled into the kernel.  You cannot install a driver if it  is already part of your kernel.  You would first have to recompile your kernel without the specific driver. +  * Kernel: Lists any wireless stack or wireless driver which has been compiled directly into the kernel itself.  Use this if you wish to determine if a particular driver is already compiled into the kernel.  You cannot install a driver if it  is already part of your kernel.  You would first have to recompile your kernel without the specific driver. 
-  * Installed: This command lists the wireless stacks and drivers actually installed on your system.  These are NOT the stacks/drivers currently loaded (running) on your system.  Use this if you to know if the driver is already installed on your system.  These are drivers which are NOT part of the kernel. +  * Installed: Lists the wireless stacks and drivers actually installed on your system.  These are NOT the stacks/drivers currently loaded (running) on your system.  Use this if you to know if the driver is already installed on your system.  These are drivers which are NOT part of the kernel. 
-  * Loaded: This command lists the wireless stacks and drivers which are currently loaded (running) in memory.+  * Loaded: Lists the wireless stacks and drivers which are currently loaded (running) in memory.
   * Load: This command loads the specified driver into memory.  The driver number is obtained from the output of the "installed" command.  Use this command to load the desired driver into memory if it did not load when you plugged in your wireless device or booted up.   * Load: This command loads the specified driver into memory.  The driver number is obtained from the output of the "installed" command.  Use this command to load the desired driver into memory if it did not load when you plugged in your wireless device or booted up.
   * Unload: This command removes (unloads) the specified driver from memory.  The driver number is obtained from the output of the "loaded" command.  This is sometimes required when recompiling or installing a new version of the driver.  Normally a reload should be sufficient after installing a new version.   * Unload: This command removes (unloads) the specified driver from memory.  The driver number is obtained from the output of the "loaded" command.  This is sometimes required when recompiling or installing a new version of the driver.  Normally a reload should be sufficient after installing a new version.
-  * Reload: This command reloads the specified driver by removing it from memory then loading it again.  The driver number is obtained from the output of the "loaded" command.  Use this after installing a new version of the driver or it can sometimes help if your driver is misbehaving. +  * Reload: Reloads the specified driver by removing it from memory then loading it again.  The driver number is obtained from the output of the "loaded" command.  Use this after installing a new version of the driver or it can sometimes help if your driver is misbehaving. 
-  * Install: This command installs the specified driver on your system and loads it into memory.  The driver number is obtained from the output of the "loaded" command.  All the required steps are taken care of for you including obtaining the driver sources, obtaining injection patches, applying patches, compiling and then loading it into memory.  This is one the simplest and easiest methods of ensuring your driver is capable of injection.  You may also need to install a related stack for your driver to be fully functional. +  * Install: Installs the specified driver on your system and loads it into memory.  The driver number is obtained from the output of the "loaded" command.  All the required steps are taken care of for you including obtaining the driver sources, obtaining injection patches, applying patches, compiling and then loading it into memory.  This is one the simplest and easiest methods of ensuring your driver is capable of injection.  You may also need to install a related stack for your driver to be fully functional. 
-  * Remove: This command removes the specified driver from your system.  This removes the module from memory and the module tree.  Use this if you wish to remove the driver from your system permanently. +  * Remove: Removes the specified driver from your system.  This removes the module from memory and the module tree.  Use this if you wish to remove the driver from your system permanently.

-  * Details: This command lists detailed information about the module.  The driver number is obtained from the output of the "installed" command.  This especially valuable to confirm you are using the correct version and when it was installed.  The install date is located after the file name.  This can be used to confirm you are in fact using the the recently compiled module.  A common problem is that one of the required modules was compiled on a different date.  This normally means you have two different versions of the same modules and the result is that the driver fails.  If this happens, delete all the modules and reinstall or recompile. +  * Details: Rists detailed information about the module.  The driver number is obtained from the output of the "installed" command.  This especially valuable to confirm you are using the correct version and when it was installed.  The install date is located after the file name.  This can be used to confirm you are in fact using the the recently compiled module.  A common problem is that one of the required modules was compiled on a different date.  This normally means you have two different versions of the same modules and the result is that the driver fails.  If this happens, delete all the modules and reinstall or recompile. 
-  * Detect: This command is used to determine which wireless devices are connect to your system.  There is no precise method of doing these types of checks.  Consider this more as educated guesses rather then definitive information.  Having said that, it will generally provide very useful information.+  * Detect: Used to determine which wireless devices are connect to your system.  There is no precise method of doing these types of checks.  Consider this more as educated guesses rather then definitive information.  Having said that, it will generally provide very useful information.
  
 The script also attempts to ensure the success of the operation by first confirming that you have the correct tools and software loaded on your system.  You will receive warnings and/or error messages if your system is not capable of the requested operation.  Although airdriver-ng attempts to minimize the risk, it will always be there.  Please be aware that this is always a certain amount of risk to your system when working with drivers. The script also attempts to ensure the success of the operation by first confirming that you have the correct tools and software loaded on your system.  You will receive warnings and/or error messages if your system is not capable of the requested operation.  Although airdriver-ng attempts to minimize the risk, it will always be there.  Please be aware that this is always a certain amount of risk to your system when working with drivers.
