Hi iam trying to comile the 2.6.7 kernel....I follow the steps as described in the General Section....When i run the make modules_install the following warning appears

Warning: you may need to install module-init-tools

What are they?

The make modules_install after that message returns much errors
e.x "depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.6.7/kernel/........."

Can u suggest me something? I need the new 2.6.7 kernel..
Thx a lot guys

Good Luck bro..

I have the same problem. I updated module-init-tools to 3.0, did a make mrproper and configged and compiled kernel again
did a make modules_install after it, still the same problems :/

hi ol

i think my post can help you (lsmod show nothing...)

but i'm a

you have to create a etc/modprobe.conf
I think the module-init-tools install is not very auto...

i also did a ./generate-modprobe.conf /etc/modprobe.conf
doesn't help :/
I still get the unresolved symbols
