Re: question..

["menion?" <menion mindless com>]

Those are modules that you did not compile into your kernel as
modules.   (Left over from the default install.)  So you: a. compiled
them into the kernel, or b. did not compil.e them at all.  I would just
do an 'rm <file-name>' on them my self.  You can always make them again
later. =).

iBCS: Intel Binary Compatible Systems. (Something like that)
ipx:  D'uh ipx modules. =)
eepro100:  I think that's the intel ether pro 10/100
ip_alias.o: That is the IP alias driver.


Wait.. Did you copy <linuxsourcehome>/arch/i386/boot/zImage to
/boot/<filename>

I have a naming convention for my kernels, simlpy because I mess with
them so much. *evil grin*

k<kernel-number><type> 
(3 types: d = default, o = old, e = Expirimental)
i.e: k2.0.33d   (my default 2.0.33 kernel)

So you need to <i believe> copy zImage to /boot/<filename>.  The Redhat
convention is to copy the kernel to /boot/vmlinuz-<kernel number>  (i.e.
vmlinuz-2.0.33), and make a link to it called: 'vmlinuz'. (i.e. ln -s
vmlinuz-2.0.33 vmlinuz).  Then lilo.conf points to '/boot/vmlinuz'.  I
highley recommend keeping a spare kernel around, in the lilo.conf of
course, because t could save you grief in the future.


Also, there is a little known utility in the arch/i386/boot dir that is
called 'setup' I highly recommend running it.
