gentoo modules issue

fuzzhead85 · 04-29-2005, 02:04 PM

i config-ed my own kernel and it works fine, except for modules, it reports there is no /proc/modules

and in my .config i have,
CONFIG_MODULES=y
CONFIG_OBSOLETE_MODPARM=y
CONFIG_KMOD=y

and to create the kernel i run
make
make modues
make modules_install
then i copy by hand the bzimage, system.map and config

hope this helps
here is mine;

Code:

#
# Loadable module support
#
CONFIG_MODULES=y
CONFIG_MODULE_UNLOAD=y
# CONFIG_MODULE_FORCE_UNLOAD is not set
CONFIG_OBSOLETE_MODPARM=y
# CONFIG_MODVERSIONS is not set

CONFIG_KMOD=y

#
# Pseudo filesystems
#
CONFIG_PROC_FS=y

CONFIG_SYSFS=y
CONFIG_DEVFS_FS=y
# CONFIG_DEVFS_MOUNT is not set

CONFIG_TMPFS=y
# CONFIG_TMPFS_XATTR is not set

I may be off base.But it can't hurt
