I begin loading the CD from the hardware management console and get the usual error messages: " /lib/lcs.o was compiled for kernel version 2.4.7 while this kernel is version 2.4.7-6.1BOOT /lib/lcs.o unresolved symbol tasklet_hi_schedule " If I attempt to insmod /lib/lcs.o without the force switch, I only get the kernel version mismatch error. When I use the insmod -f /lib/lcs.o command, I get the kernel message, as well as the unresolved symbol error. So I would guess that there must be some incompatibility beyond naming conventions. Any ideas out there? Michael Lambert
