.rhkmvtag existed before redhat 5.2 (in fact i had this in redhat5.1 as
well).
this is used to create symlinks but still no clue on how to create
/boot/module-info ???
that is the only question that was not answered in this thread.
Does someone know how redhat build this file ??
it does not seem to be used anymore but why the hell did they put this
and an automatic way to create symlinks on it ?

Hi, I've been following this thread and haven't seen anyone mention
the
.rhkmvtag file. In RedHat 5.2 they introduced this file and there must
be
one in each module directory... ie /lib/modules/2.2.0 To create one
simply
'cat /proc/version > .rhkmvtag'. It is used in the rc.sysinit script to
create the preferred symlink as well as the module-info and System.map
symlinks.
Hope that helps.
