This is related to the problem below.
Can anybody please tell me how to find out which modules would required to be
compiled and installed before installing a vanilla kernel.
I followed the steps in the email below, this time for Fedora 14 but it threw an error for some
other module which I knowingly did not compile.I need to know which modules should not
be left while compiling and installing a vanilla kernel.
Thanks

Hi,
I am trying to install an extra vanilla kernel on Fedora 13. The Fedora 13 runs on vmware virtual machine.
I installed it using and iso of live cd. A 'uname -r' gives the version as 2.6.33-85.fc13.i686.
The kernel version I am trying to install is 2.6.38.8
I am following these steps :
- Download kernel source and unzip it
- make menuconfig (Saved the config)
- make
- make modules_install
- make install
However as soon as i do a 'make install ' an error message appears saying :
"ERROR:modinfo:could not find module i2c_core"
I could find the options for i2c in the config menu and enabled some of them but didn't help.
Could anyone please tell me how to debug this error ? I have tried the same thing on Fedora 14 earlier and there was
no such problem.
Thanks
