make mrproper make dep make bzImage make modules make modules_install
it is in make modules_install that the problem arises. figure i am missing a module that some other modules requires somewhere.
still trying to figure out what.
You need to make sure your "modutils" package is up to date to use the new kernels. There are changes in the way the kernel and modules tie together. The current modutils is "modutils-2.4.22-8" (do an "rpm -qa | grep modutils" to see what you have now). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens vitalstream com - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - The light at the end of the tunnel is really an oncoming train. - ----------------------------------------------------------------------
