Bug#815853: Cannot modprobe due to wrong kernel version string

[Heinrich Schuchardt]

The error was caused by the system not using the kernel installed in
/boot but reading it from /dev/mmcblk0p1.

Please, close the message.

Bug#815853: Cannot modprobe due to wrong kernel version string

[Heinrich Schuchardt]

Package: linux-image-3.16.0-4-armmp-lpae
Version: 3.16.7-ckt20-1+deb8u2
Severity: grave

The package installs modules in /lib/modules/3.16.0-4-armmp-lpae
but uname -r returns
3.16.0-4-armmp

This means that modules cannot be loaded, e.g.

$ sudo modprobe nls_cp437
modprobe: ERROR: ../libkmod/libkmod.c:557 kmod_search_moddep() could not
open moddep file '/lib/modules/3.16.0-4-armmp/modules.dep.bin'

For lpae kernels append -lpae to the kernel version string.
