Did you do a 'make zImage' or 'make bzImage' when building the kernel ? The zImages have a size limit of 512 kB, so you really should build a bzImage if you need all this stuff in your kernel. If you want to learn how to make loadable modules, please read the Kernel-HOWTO on http://linuxdoc.org/ regards, Rik -- Shortwave goes a long way: irc.starchat.net #swl http://www.surriel.com/ http://distro.conectiva.com/ -- Kernelnewbies: Help each other learn about the Linux kernel.
