I'm trying to write a script to install a new kernel and then the
latest v4l-dvb drivers. This means that the kernel I am building
against will not be the current one running.
I have managed to get it building fine by adding a v4l/.version file
containing the following...
VERSION=2
PATCHLEVEL:=6
SUBLEVEL:=14
KERNELRELEASE:=2.6.14-2-smp
However when I go to do a make install I have a problem. The script
copies the modules into the correct place but then runs a `
/sbin/depmod -a`. This however runs against the current kernel so
works out the module dependencies for the 2.6.12 kernel I'm running.
I've managed to fix this by changing all instances of /sbin/depmod -a to...
/sbin/depmod -a ${KERNELRELEASE}
This seems to work fine.
I've attached a patch to fix this in the Makefile. Can this be
commited or is there a better way of doing this?
Thanks
Mike
