Rupesh, I've tried it with module-init-tools version 3.2-pre8 (since it was latest), it works like a charm. Thanks. On 8/3/05, Rupesh S [off-list ref] wrote:
Daniel, =20 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.

What I'm doing now is, I've just commented out the bit in Makefile (where it exec's depmod), and everythings cool. =20 BUT, problem with this method is, I get none of the module.dep and many related files for auto loading of module. =20 What would be considered reasonable if I was to solve this ? =20 Thanks for your thought on this in advance. =20 -- Daniel _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-embedded mailing list Linuxppc-embedded@ozlabs.org https://ozlabs.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxppc-embedded =20 =20
