Re: Error in inserting module

Hi,
    You added 2 functions alloc_inode and new_inode from
/usr/src/linux/fs/inode.c to /usr/src/linux/fs/ramfs . You add
alloc_inode because new_inode requires it ok.
but why you want to do that as i think already new_inode in
/usr/src/linux/fs/ramfs/inode.c calling its function definition from
/usr/src/linux/fs/inode.c
     so you can directly recompile kernel with ramfs support(which is
default in 2.6.14.3) and insert module.
regards,
Parag.
