Maybe I missed some of this thread but normally one would edit the Makefile "Extraversion" when compiling a kernel. VERSION = 2 PATCHLEVEL = 4 SUBLEVEL = 9 EXTRAVERSION = -test1
This way you'll get a kernel named "2.4.9-test1" and when you make install your modules the sub dir "/lib/modules/2.4.9-test1" will be created automatically and keeps everything seperate. > On Fri, Dec 13, 2002 at 08:50:55PM +0100, Hans Ekbrand wrote: > > On Fri, Dec 13, 2002 at 11:32:38AM -0500, rob apodaca wrote: > > > The last step "make modules_install" would copy the modules to > > /lib/modules/<my_kernelmod_dir> ON THE COMPUTER THAT DID THE > > COMPILATION (in many cases the server).
