I was speculating about generating the file upon make config, thinking
Bill had the full kernel source in order to build external modules, not
just the linux-headers package.
I cannot find any mention of modules.lds in kernel-package or the 2.6.21
Debian source package. I'll hack it into debian/rules.real. BTW, it's
already in there for 2.6.21, only in the install-headers-$(ARCH)-$(SUBARCH)-$(FLAVOR)
target, and there it's only a symlink pointing to the nonexisting file in
/usr/src/linux-headers (that ought to have been installed by the
install-headers-$(ARCH)-$(SUBARCH) target) from /usr/src/... Complicated.
Christian: please apply the attached patch. Bill: please try to just add
module.lds like I posted. You might be missing arch/m68k/kernel/asm-offsets.s
as well; if so, you'd have to build the kernel from source and build the
modules against the kernel tree.
