Re: Issue with running depmod after cross compiling

Rupesh,

I've tried it with module-init-tools version 3.2-pre8 (since it was
latest), it works like a charm. Thanks.

Assuming your kernel is 2.6 based, you might want to try module-init-tool=
s version 3.2-pre7. Also, it would be better to have the existing depmod re=
named as depmod.old. This is for the new depmod to use in case it fails to =
execute.

Hey folks,

For certain, I understand why running make module_install fails if I
run it after cross compiling the kernel+module.
What I'm doing now is, I've just commented out the bit in Makefile
(where it exec's depmod), and everythings cool.

BUT, problem with this method is, I get none of the module.dep and
many related files for auto loading of module.

What would be considered reasonable if I was to solve this ?

Thanks for your thought on this in advance.
