Just tried to recompile the RH Linux distributed 6.2 kernel version
2.2.14-5
and i keep getting the following error >
almost all the modules (several hundred of them approx) come up with
unresolved sysbol errors when trying to
insert them
ans allways related to the best_memcopy or best_memset and similar
sounding symbols
as shown below
I recompiled the modules (make modules) and installed them ( make
modules_install)
and ran depmod but i still get the error
depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in
/lib/modules/2.2.14-5.0/misc/zft-compressor.o
depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.2.14-5.0/misc/zftape.o

/lib/modules/2.2.14-5.0/misc/sound.o failed
/lib/modules/2.2.14-5.0/misc/sound.o: insmod sb failed
I need to do a pigphysarea patch but cant even compile without the patch
ive run depmod - and it dosent help - just complains as shown above
Funny thing is the RPM kernel and modules from RH6.2 work perfectly
without any errors
yet when i use either recompiled modules or kernel or both i get the
error
so either RH known something i dont or mabey i am just doing something
wrong ?
And ive recompled kernels (RH6 and RH5.2) before without any problems
and it normally works fine)
Anyone got any ideas or suggestions about this ?
Anyone else successfully recompiled the RH6.2 release kernel version ?
