Hi, I have a 2.6.24 system running in a separate box (which boots from an SD Card), and I want to install compat-wireless in it in order to use a driver (and update the wireless subsystem). I compile the kernel for the 2.6.24 system in my daily PC. I cross compiled compat-wireless without problems against the 2.6.24 sources using KLIB=(2.6.24 src path) and KLIB_BUILD=(2.6.24 src path) My problem is that I am not sure of how to install it in the 2.6.24 system. As this system can be booted from the SD Card, I can mount it in my daily PC and set the DESTDIR and others with destination the path. I ran something like: make KLIB=(2.6.24 src path) KLIB_BUILD=(2.6.24 src path) KMODPATH_ARG="INSTALL_MOD_PATH=(2.6.24 mounted in my pc/lib/modules/2.6.24/)" DESTDIR=(2.6.24 mounted in my pc/lib/modules/2.6.24/) modules_install Which actually copied the modules into the 2.6.24 system in the SD Card. However, when booting the 2.6.24 box, and then trying to do insmod /path/driver.ko, it fails to find some symbols. Going through the different dependencies (by trying to insert a module, and then executing dmesg -c), and trying to insert them, it fails too. I cannot insert mac80211.ko or compat.ko or the rfkill module, etc. I think one of the last dependences is the function "dev_set_name" which appears in compat-2.6.26.c I am not sure if this file is also being compiled (as my daily PC has a 2.6.29 kernel and I don't have access to it right now). Well, maybe missing a dependency somewhere, or the 2.6.24 kernel version is not correctly identified. Any hints?
