Hi Brian,
I did reboot the machine, and saw that during boot time there is a call to depmod. I did depmod -ae as you've requested, and here are the results: [root@NettGain root]# depmod -ae >chav.dat depmod: /lib/modules/2.4.18-3/kernel/drivers/net/makefile.8139 is not an ELF file depmod: /lib/modules/2.4.18-3/kernel/drivers/net/makefile.eepro is not an ELF file depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.4.18-3/kernel/drivers/net/8139too.o depmod: __netdev_watchdog_up depmod: flush_signals depmod: eth_type_trans depmod: mii_ethtool_sset depmod: __kfree_skb depmod: alloc_skb depmod: pci_register_driver depmod: mii_link_ok depmod: pci_free_consistent depmod: pci_enable_device depmod: pci_read_config_byte depmod: alloc_etherdev depmod: mii_ethtool_gset depmod: reparent_to_init depmod: cpu_raise_softirq depmod: free_irq depmod: unregister_netdev depmod: kill_proc depmod: iounmap depmod: pci_alloc_consistent depmod: interruptible_sleep_on_timeout depmod: __ioremap depmod: pci_read_config_word depmod: skb_copy_and_csum_dev depmod: register_netdev depmod: kfree depmod: pci_release_regions depmod: wait_for_completion depmod: request_irq depmod: mii_nway_restart depmod: netif_rx depmod: pci_unregister_driver depmod: skb_over_panic depmod: pci_set_master depmod: do_BUG depmod: rtnl_unlock depmod: pci_write_config_word depmod: daemonize depmod: jiffies depmod: softnet_data depmod: rtnl_lock depmod: printk depmod: complete_and_exit depmod: kernel_thread depmod: __const_udelay depmod: pci_request_regions
Please note that if I manually insmod mii , then the insmod 8139too passes w/o problems .
