I am rebuilding 2.4.18.3 kernel that ships with 7.3 to disable pcmcia so I can use a wireless card via a pci bridge with pcmcia-cs.
I had big dramas with ext3 during reboots after compiling stock kernel so reinstalled with ext2 file system. So I, installed kernel source; cd to linux-2.4; make mrproper; make dep; make clean; used a virgin config but was missing a ppp module tty something in the kernel allthough it booted fine but could'nt get adsl up, used the i586.config as supplied by RH for a 200mmx; make xconfig; (disabled pcmcia support and changed processor to mmx) changed Makefile ->EXTRAVERSION = -3wireless make bzImage; make modules; make modules_install; make install; all compiled without errors rebooted modules not loading, damn no /lib/modules/2.4.28-3wireless. :( I desperately tried to symlink modules from original /lib/modules/2.4.18-3, hmm obviously didn't work. :) I thought make install might be stuffing it up but that shouldn't effect my /lib/modules/ should it. an anyone shed any light on this the old 200mmx takes forever doing this espicially with a distro config like redhats.
