Just some check-points:
- Did you run "make modules_install" after "make modules" ?
- Does kerneld run?
- Have you tried building the (optional) kdstat (in the kerneld directory)? A "kdstat debug" will make kerneld tell you what it is doing. A "kdstat nodebug" will make it silent again.
- What does "modprobe -c" do? Does it tell you _anything_?
