Hi. 'make-kpkg modules_image' is for external modules. 'make-kpkg kernel_image' will recompile the kernel and the selected modules that are in the kernel source. You'll then have a handy .deb file in /usr/src which you can 'dpkg -i <packagename>' to reinstall the kernel and kernel modules. so comment is basically "If you need to re-compile the kernel, you need to run make-kpkg kernel_image, not make-kpkg modules_image" Noah --begin quoted message from Patric Kabus, > Hi! > > When I try to load the module cryptoloop the following error occurs: > > hostname:/usr/src/linux# modprobe cryptoloop > /lib/modules/2.4.19/kernel/crypto/drivers/cryptoloop.o: unresolved > symbol find_transform_by_name_Re5d73061 > /lib/modules/2.4.19/kernel/crypto/drivers/cryptoloop.o: unresolved > symbol loop_register_transfer_R996c5c81 > /lib/modules/2.4.19/kernel/crypto/drivers/cryptoloop.o: insmod > /lib/modules/2.4.19/kernel/crypto/drivers/cryptoloop.o failed > /lib/modules/2.4.19/kernel/crypto/drivers/cryptoloop.o: insmod > cryptoloop failed > > I have a debian woody kernel 2.4.19.
