Hello List I had earlier reported some compilation errors on 2.6.3 kernel.This was after applying the patch : "packet-2.6.3.patch " to enable packet writing for CD-RW.Since then I managed to rectify thoseerrors.I recompiled and followed the detailed tips posted in this list.All steps got through correctly but "make install" failed with the message : 1)Could not load /lib/modules/2.6.3-2.1.204/unsupported/fs/hfs/hfs.ko 2)Could not load /lib/modules/2.6.3-2.1.204custom/modules.dep :No such file or directory ' mkinitrd failed' .Next I copied the 'bzImage' generated successfully to /boot and renamed it as vmlinuz-2.6.3-udf to indicate that the image is packet-writing enabled for CD-RW. However, on booting the new kernel image I found that all the modules are missing.The old image is also giving the same errors. I know that I have messed up my FC1 system. I think that it has something to do with 2.6.3-2.1.204custom directory which is being searched but is non-existent.Hence I removed the word custom from EXTRAVERSION=2.6.3-2.1.204custom line in the top level Makefile. This does not get my system back to the old state. I request for urgent help in restoration of my system.Could some one respond please?
