Bug#363032: linux-image-2.6.16-1-686: 2.6.16-7 breaks module compat
Package: linux-image-2.6.16-1-686
Version: 2.6.16-7
Followup-For: Bug #363032
On my system this bug (at least I think it is this bug) makes this kernel
version unbootable, as it fails to load ide_disk and so appears to be
unable to access the hard disk. I get the following sequence of errors
(once the system is fully up, / lives on hdb1) and then get a dash shell
from where it seems I can do very little.
via82cxxx: disagrees about version of symbol struct_module
insmod: error inserting module '/lib/modules/2.6.16-1-686/kernel/drivers/ide/pci/via82cxxx.ko': -1 invalid module format
generic: disagrees about version of symbol struct_module
insmod: error inserting module '/lib/modules/2.6.16-1-686/kernel/drivers/ide/pci/generic.ko': -1 invalid module format
ide_disk: disagrees about version of symbol struct_module
insmod: error inserting module '/lib/modules/2.6.16-1-686/kernel/drivers/ide/pci/ide-disk.ko': -1 invalid module format

Device /sys/block/hdb/dev seems to be down.
Debugging oportunity, type ^D to continue.
/bin/dash: can't access tty; job control turned off

(There were other modules that failed before those, that is the final
screenfull, which I made a note of.)
