 Posted: Thu Jul 08, 2004 9:30 pm Post subject: UNRESOLVED SYMBOLS ON REBUILD KERNEL PROBLEM...(solved) |
 |
|
Hi guys....
At the moment I am still using kernel 2.4 for my laptop IBM R32...cause when I try to used kernel 2.6...my internal modem still not really works (I am still using dial up connection).
So yesterday I try to rebuild my current kernel linux-2.4.26-gentoo-r3 (genkernel) to enable sound cards and IPtables as Modules.
I did the instruction to rebuild the kernel following instructions:
1. ln -sf /usr/src/linux-2.4.26-gentoo-r3 /usr/src/linux
2. cd /usr/src/linux
3. make mrproper
4. make menuconfig ( enable sound cards as modules, networks,iptables and NAT as modules).
5. make dep && clean bzImage modules modules_install
6. cp arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot/kernel-2.4.26-gentoo-r3
7. cp System.map /boot/System.map-2.4.26-gentoo-r3
8. cp .config /boot/config-2.4.26-gentoo-r3
9. emerge alsa-driver
10. emerge alsa-oss
11. emerge alsa-utils
12. modules-update
And I've got very long list of.... depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.4.26-gentoo-r3
And then I've already try different kernels like ...vanila-sources,gs-sources and end up with same error.
So far I've done removed/moved old modules on lib :
mv /lib/modules/linux-2.4.26-gentoo-r3 /lib/modules/linux-2.4.26-gentoo-r3.old
But still..have problem..
Any kernel guru..help me out...that'll be great
Cheers

marina,
Step 5a mount /boot
Do and check the kernel build date, just to see if its the kernel you think it is.
Issue all the make commands one at a time so that you can see if one breaks.

yupe I did it but still no luck:
| Code: |
bash-2.05b# uname -a
Linux SexyBabe 2.4.26-gentoo-r3 #1 Sat Jul 10 13:01:20 AUST 2004 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 Mobile CPU 1.60GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux
|
BTW the day before I did emerge -uD world Will that be the problem?? I mean...like a new gcc stuff? cause I try different kernel with same result. |

OK I tried different method:
| Code: |
1. ln -sf /usr/src/linux-2.4.26-gentoo-r3 /usr/src/linux
2. cd /usr/src/linux
3. make mrproper
4. make menuconfig ( enable sound cards as modules, networks,iptables and NAT as modules).
4.a mv /lib/modules/2.4.26-gentoo-r3 /lib/modules/2.4.26-gentoo-r3.old
5. make dep && clean bzImage modules modules_install
5.a mount /boot
6. cp arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot/kernel-2.4.26-gentoo-r3
7. cp System.map /boot/System.map-2.4.26-gentoo-r3
8. cp .config /boot/config-2.4.26-gentoo-r3
9. emerge alsa-driver
10. emerge alsa-oss
11. emerge alsa-utils
12. modules-update
|
Notice that 4a and 5a but still same error result.... along time ago I never have problem like this when I rebuilt my kernel.
And I am beginning to think..may be because that emerge -uD world I did the day before...
I need that IP tables modules really badly cause..I am running vmware on my laptop (trying to run windows 2003 server as test server..)
And now I have to get back to genkernel cause I cannot used IPtables..
Any advise..anyone..

Allright I was searching on kernel bugs problem for modules upload..it seems to me gcc-3.3 have alot problem for modules-update
So I am going to downgrade my gcc-3.3.3 to gcc-3.2.4
Anyone want to tell me what is the best way to downgrade gcc-3.2.4??
I've been thinking to upgrading my gcc to 3.3 but different version..how you guys did it?
if I do this :
edit: I just realised in my /etc/make.conf:
| Code: |
#ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~arch"
|
Should that be change to x86 or ~x86...?? and remove #.
Will that be changing gcc version? instead of emerge -uD world..? |

I've solved the problem ....I found that problem on gcc :gcc-3.3.3-r2..... I've upgraded to gcc-3.3.3-r6.
It means that gcc-3.3.3-r2 still buggy cause I couldn't rebuild any kernel( vanilla sources-2.4.26, gentoo-sources,gs sources,etc) to enable modules on alsa,pcmcia,iptables,NAT (could be anything else). |
