1029.root@mars:/usr/src/linux>> make modules_install cp: irda.o: No such file or directory Installing modules under /lib/modules/2.1.131/net
It seems to try and copy the irda.o file even though I have not said that I want irda stuff compiled either into the kernel or as a module. (ie 'N' is said to everything).
If I'm reading the results of make then judging by the following that's where it does it:
make[3]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.1.131/drivers/net/irda' rm -f $TOPDIR/modules/IRDA_MODULES make[3]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.1.131/drivers/net/irda' rm -f $TOPDIR/modules/NET_MODULES for i in irda; do \ echo `basename $i`.o >> $TOPDIR/modules/NET_MODULES; done
nd at a guess this line:
MOD_SUB_DIRS := $(SUB_DIRS) irda
in drivers/net/Makefile
is the cause and shouldn't have irda in it. then again I'm not quite sure how the whole module system works amongst all those makefiles and as such am only seriously guessing.
