 Posted: Sun May 27, 2007 5:56 pm Post subject: Kernel modules installation |
 |
|
I have some problems with modules installation: after compiling kernel. "make modules_install" do nothing just prints "if [ -r System.map -a -x /sbin/depmod ]; then /sbin/depmod -ae -F System.map 2.6.21-gentoo-r2; fi". No modules in /lib/modules/2.6.21-gentoo-r2, but a lot of them in /usr/src/linux.  What is wrong??? |

In order for there to be any modules to install, you need to have configured some components of the kernel as modules (<M> shown in menuconfig) as opposed to linked in (<*> shown in menuconfig). Did you just select every device driver that you wanted as "Yes" (results in '*') or did you select some of them as modules?
