Greetings;
In my attempts to find a 64 bit or PAE enabled kernel to run on my older ASUS M2N-SLI Delux mobo, I saw a note go by during the build that there were 9 section-miss-matches.
But when I applied the cli option recommended to the make lines in my makeit script, I only got these 2 squawks.
WARNING: drivers/net/ethernet/amd/depca.o(.text+0xcce): Section mismatch in reference from the function depca_isa_probe() to the function .init.text:DepcaSignature() The function depca_isa_probe() references the function __init DepcaSignature(). This is often because depca_isa_probe lacks a __init annotation or the annotation of DepcaSignature is wrong.
WARNING: drivers/net/ethernet/amd/depca.o(.text+0xd22): Section mismatch in reference from the function depca_isa_probe() to the function .init.text:depca_hw_init() The function depca_isa_probe() references the function __init depca_hw_init(). This is often because depca_isa_probe lacks a __init annotation or the annotation of depca_hw_init is wrong.
I am not capable to fixing these, too many years & miles on the wet ram, but I thought that maybe someone might be interested.
Also, these kernels seem to want to drop me to an initramfs$ prompt, where, since both kayboard and mouse are wireless usb, there is no connection, so I have to hit the reset button & try a known good kernel.
Has the use of mkinitramfs been deprecated? and if so, replace by what?
Thanks.
