Couldn't load module after patching a kernel

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

 



In order to run kgdb, I patched kernel 2.4.18-3. I renamed and copied System.map and bzImage onto /boot/System.map-2.4.18-3-kgdb and /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.18-3-kgdb respectively on test machine. The /lib/modules/2.4.18-3custom/ directory along with subdirectories were also copied onto test machine. Of course lilo.conf was edited. The newly built kernel work fine except one thing: missing network interface driver module nvnet.o

Because I do not have source of the module. So I copied the nvnet.o into /lib/modules/2.4.18-3custom/kernel/drivers/net/ and added an entry in modules.dep. By running depmod, it told me that unresolved symbols nvnet.o.
I am wondering what I am missing here. Your help will be appreciated,
-Hong
