How do I rename the kernel I'm building? And is that the same question as: How do I build a module to try loading into whatever kernel? My uname-r is "2.4.20-xfs". >From http://www.kernel.org/ I fetched 2.4.20 and built a new drivers/usb/storage/usb-storage.o. If I copy what I built to /lib/modules/2.4.20-xfs/kernel/ then modprobe chokes via: ...: couldn't find the kernel version the module was compiled for ...: insmod ... failed ...: insmod usb-storage failed I presume I've built a 2.4.20 module and not a 2.4.20-xfs module, ouch. How do I build a module to try loading into whatever kernel? Pat LaVarre __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
