Hello all, I finally got around to updating my kernel to 2.6.20-gentoo-r5 today, but have run into a snag. I did the usual 'make vmlinux && make modules_install' as per the guide, copied vmlinux to /boot, edited yaboot.conf, ran 'ybin -v' and rebooted. Everything seemed good until it started failing on load for everything I built as a module. A little strange...
OK, so I have a look at my modules: # ls /lib/modules/2.6.20-gentoo-r5/ build modules.alias modules.dep modules.inputmap modules.ofmap modules.seriomap modules.usbmap kernel modules.ccwmap modules.ieee1394map modules.isapnpmap modules.pcimap modules.symbols source looks good... # ls /lib/modules/2.6.20-gentoo-r5/kernel # Waaahhh? There's nothing there? I tried to install them again, thinking I messed up: # make modules_install if [ -r System.map -a -x /sbin/depmod ]; then /sbin/depmod -ae -F System.map 2.6.20-gentoo-r5; fi Nothing... So where did my modules go? I can assure you all that I *configured* them: # grep "=m" .config | head -n5 CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_ENABLED=m CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK=m CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_FTP=m CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_IRC=m CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_TFTP=m # grep "=m" .config | wc -l 72 Does anyone know what I've done wrong here? This is sort of bizarre. I re-read the kernel's README, but 'make modules_install' is still valid. As I say, kernel is 2.6.20-gentoo-r5 (gentoo-sources), machine is a Powermac G5, 64-bit userland, what else do you need to know? Just ask...
