So how come it's never been a problem on my RH boxes? (Currently RH9 + module-init-tools but none of Arjan's .rpms)
I basically do make bzImage modules |& tee /tmp/log grep Warning /tmp/log su make modules_install make install
Creating the /lib/modules/<version> directory is the kernel's job, not installkernel (it's never done that before). - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
