building linux kernel problems

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,
  I installed linux redhat 7.2 with 2.4.18-3 kernel, since the kernel.org
only supplies kernel source of 2.4.18, I downloaded it and rebuilt the
kernel 2.4.18, the reason I did this is because when I compile a kernel
module using 2.4.18 src code, I can not install it into 2.4.18-3 kernel.

I did make menuconfig, make dep, make clean, make bzImage, make
modules, make modules_install, and copied System.map and bzImage to /boot
partition and /sbin/mkinitrd the proper initrd.img file, grup.conf is also
changed, but after booting, it propmted
/lib/ext3.o unresolved symbol journal_restart
/lib/ext3.o unresolved symbol journal_abort
...

bunch of journal symbol, I am pretty sure I have ext3.o and jbd.o choosen
as kernel module and linked into initrd.img since I can see them when
using /sbin/mkinitrd -v option.

can anybody tell me what's wrong with these?
Is that because I can not have a new kernel version older than the current
one?

Thanks,


-Haijin
