Side note. I wanted to mention here that the kernel-source-xxx/Documentation/Changes file lists 'module-init-tools' in Current Minimal Requirements.
(It also warns *against* the use of 'the /usr/src/linux area' for compiling kernels in. I figure that warning does not apply to the meathod I am using, make-kpkg. However, someone *please* say so if I am wrong. Really I am just guessing because the explanation does not make sense to me, but I could be wrong.) Anyway, here are the above mentioned. . . Current Minimal Requirements ============================ Upgrade to at *least* these software revisions before thinking you've encountered a bug! If you're unsure what version you're currently running, the suggested command should tell you. Again, keep in mind that this list assumes you are already functionally running a Linux 2.4 kernel. Also, not all tools are necessary on all systems; obviously, if you don't have any PCMCIA (PC Card) hardware, for example, you probably needn't concern yourself with pcmcia-cs. o Gnu C 2.95.3 # gcc --version o Gnu make 3.78 # make --version o binutils 2.12 # ld -v o util-linux 2.10o # fdformat --version o module-init-tools 0.9.10 # depmod -V o e2fsprogs 1.29 # tune2fs o jfsutils 1.1.3 # fsck.jfs -V o reiserfsprogs 3.6.3 # reiserfsck -V 2>&1|grep reiserfsprogs o xfsprogs 2.6.0 # xfs_db -V o pcmcia-cs 3.1.21 # cardmgr -V o quota-tools 3.09 # quota -V o PPP 2.4.0 # pppd --version o isdn4k-utils 3.1pre1 # isdnctrl 2>&1|grep version o nfs-utils 1.0.5 # showmount --version o procps 3.1.13 # ps --version o oprofile 0.5.3 # oprofiled --version Just wanted to mention that this does include 'module-init-tools'. And thanks GCS for that tip. I had overlooked this. Roger :-) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
