OK so far. > the command "make modules_install" it exits with the following message: This is wrong; it will try to install the modules not on your target filesystem, but on your development host, and (if you're running as root and the copy actually succeeds - which is another mistake: never do such things as root!) your development host's "depmod" will complain. You should pass a "INSTALL_MOD_PATH=<target_dir>" parameter to your make command, something like make modules_install INSTALL_MOD_PATH=/opt/eldk/ppc_8xx Best regards, Wolfgang Denk -- Software Engineering: Embedded and Realtime Systems, Embedded Linux Phone: (+49)-8142-4596-87 Fax: (+49)-8142-4596-88 Email: wd at denx.de There are three ways to get something done: do it yourself, hire someone, or forbid your kids to do it. ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list.
