Problem making install time driver disk

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

 



So, I'm having a bit of a problem.  I've got driver code for a FastTrack 100 
raid adapter, and if I compile this code against a 2.4.18-14-i686 configured 
kernel-source, I can insmod the module into a system booted w/ 
2.4.18-14-i686.  The problem comes when making a module to use in the install 
environment.  I did "make mrproper && cp 
configs/kernel-2.4.18-i386-BOOT.config .config && make oldconfig && make dep" 
in the /usr/src/linux-2.4.18-14 directory, then compiled my FastTrack module 
again, same as before.  The module compiles, but when I try to load it in the 
install environment, I get various unresolved dependancies, ranging from 
vsprintf, to jiffies, to printk.  Every place I look details doing exactly 
what I did to build a module to use in the boot/install environment, but it 
just doesn't work.  I'd be inclined to say it's a problem with the source, 
but I doubt that, since I can successfully build/load a module for 
2.4.18-14-i686.

Can anybody give me a hand with this?
