Warning message about /boot/System.map-2.2.19
I get the following message
{tcp_slt_array} {tcp_slt_array_R__ver_tcp_slt_array}
Warning: /boot/System.map-2.2.19 does not match kernel data.
sometimes (when running ps, for example) on an upgraded Debian potato box
with Linux 2.2.19. I failed to determine the origins of this message.
Can this message signify any security problems?
What program generates it (is it the kernel itself?), why, and what
should I do in order to set up the things correctly?
Additional information: How the the current kernel was installed.
The kernel that was initially installed was 2.2.14. Then 2.2.19 source
was downloaded as a Debian package, unpacked, configured, compiled into a
package with `make-kpkg kernel_image', and then installed with `dpkg -i'.
The /boot directory was cleaned up before the installation, any
necessary Lilo adjustments were made, and Linux 2.2.19 successfully
booted.
Feel free not to send your reply to debian-security if my problem is not
related to security in any way.
Please cc your reply to me.
Please point an appropriate place (a mailing list, a newsgroup) to ask
more about my problem if it cannot be related to security.
Regards,
Alexander Konovalenko
