Has anyone had any luck completing a "make modules_install" of
the 2.6.14
linux kernel on a gcc3.3 sytstem? I've tried two systems, one an
FC2 and one
an FC3, and both fail with the following error message:
if [ -r System.map -a -x /sbin/depmod ]; then /sbin/depmod -ae
-F System.map 2.6.14; fi
make: *** [_modinst_post] Error 137
Running the commnad "/sbin/depmod -ae -F System.map 2.6.14" from
the cli
results in a "Killed" message.
I'm running with the depmod contained in the package:
module-init-tools-3.1-0.pre5.3
I havent found a good definition for Error 137 and google results
imply it means
"Value not recognized."
The make modules_install works just fine on an FC4 system (with gcc4).

Bill,
The problem goes deeper than that.
Please read the documentation about the kernel and you will see that
you need to update much of the underlying operating system before you
can use the new kernel.
It is not related to gcc4 vs gcc3.3 or even gcc3.2

Current Minimal Requirements
============================
Upgrade to at *least* these software revisions before thinking you've
encountered a bug! If you're unsure what version you're currently
running, the suggested command should tell you.
Again, keep in mind that this list assumes you are already
functionally running a Linux 2.4 kernel. Also, not all tools are
necessary on all systems; obviously, if you don't have any ISDN
hardware, for example, you probably needn't concern yourself with
isdn4k-utils.

o Gnu make 3.79.1 # make --version
