Re: 2.4 module madness
From what I remember binutils also had to be upgraded. I didn't, but simply made the same directory tree as the 2.2.x kernels under 2.4.0-test10, moved the modules to the right sub-directory, ran depmod -a and loaded the modules. YMMV. --Hans At 08:28 AM 12/18/00 -0500, Jonathan Markevich wrote: This has the air of a FAQ, but, here I ask anyway. I've compiled 2.4.0-test 12 on my potato system... and it won't load any modules.

2.4 module madness
This has the air of a FAQ, but, here I ask anyway. I've compiled 2.4.0-test 12 on my potato system... and it won't load any modules. This APPEARS to be the new structure of the /lib/modules directory.. nothing's immediately below /lib/modules/2.4.0-test12, but it's in a build link to the kernel source! Is there another step I have overlooked? Thanks. -- Jonathan Markevich [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.geocities.com/jmarkevich == It's VIRUSES, not VIRII!
