Hi,
I am trying to upgrade Busybox from busybox-1.1.0.5VT to 1.17.2 on a
Belkin F5D8235 v1 router. (Cross compiling under ubuntu x64 with
supplied toolchain , which works all fine using supplied old busybox
etc.)
I am currently stuck because insmod won't load from the module name
alone, although it is fine pointing it to the module with full path -
the problem being loading via name is hard coded in a sysinit binary so
I need loading via name to work :)
Here is sample output. (USB storage module was allready loaded with full
path in sysinit, the only one that had a full path specified)

n.b.
/modules.dep is location with original Makefiles when depmod.pl was more
lax and /lib/modules/2.4.30/modules.dep is where the new depmod.pl wants
it
I just have it in copied in both locations, I don't know how relevant
this is, if at all.
Config
-------
With separate modules using 'old' method and 2.2/2.4 kernel support
enabled. Both of the locations as default; /lib/modules, modules.dep .
Tried with and without things ticked under 2.2/2.4 support but doesnt
seem to make any difference.
insmod doesnt work at all using 'simplified mod utils' using name or
full path to load, see below.
/ # lsmod
/ # insmod rtl
insmod: can't read 'rtl': No such file or directory
/ # insmod /lib/modules/2.4.30/kernel/drivers/usb/storage/usb-storage.o
insmod: can't insert
'/lib/modules/2.4.30/kernel/drivers/usb/storage/usb-storage.o': unknown
symbol in module or invalid parameter
/ # modinfo rtl
filename: /lib/modules/2.4.30/kernel/drivers/net/rtl8366/rtl.o
license: GPL
/ #
Any help / fix much appreciated!
Thanks
Rich.
