Re: Adding nfs and ip modules to base
Hi Jay,
There have been some postings (since the 1.1.2 release) to this list
reporting the same problem. Check last week's ones as I sent a kind of
reports-log. I heard of no answers so I am not sure whther we are
exceptions# to the rule.
My solution was to reinstall 1.1 (stable tree) download & install the
packages in the updates. Among them the kernel-source-2.0.6-0.i386.deb
(please check the name) but not the kernel-image.
I the recompiled the 2.0.6 with the debian script to create a kernel-image
package. Look at kernel source tree for a debian.---- .
As a result I got the kernel-image-2.0.6-choose.your.tag.here.deb which I
installed with dpkg (instructions are in the debian script)
Now I have a custom (leaner) kernel and no problems so ever with the
"undefined" messages.

Hi,
During installation I was prompted to select some modules to
install.
I wanted nfs but it replied
nfs_mknod undefined
nfs_sillyrename_create undefined
nfs_create undefined undefined
nfs_mkdir undefined undefined
nfs_lookup_cache undefined undefined
nfs_rename undefined undefined
nfs_lookup undefined undefined
nfs_nfs_rmdir undefined undefined
nfs_link undefined
nfs_refresh_inode undefined
nfs_symlink undefined
nfs_unlink undefined
Loading failed ! The module symbols
(from linux-2.0.6) don't match your linux-2.0.6
Installation failed
For the internet protocol drivers it said:
Can't locate module console
And for my ne2000 card:
ne.c : Module autoprobing not allowed
append "io=0xNNN" values
(Howabout pointer to Ethernet Howto in Installation doc
where values to try above can be found)
I also tried (with identical results):
modprobe -t fs nfs.o
Fortunatly, can still use computer since didn't overwrite
previous system. However, can't install Debian since cannot
mount the nfs drive where distribution will be kept.
Have read the Module-Howto and related Docs but can't find
a solution to these problems. I fed the first line of nfs
error message to dejanews using 200,000 linux messages and it
found nothing ! It looks simple, since the
messges don't seem cryptic, but what do I know ...
Thanks in advance for any enlightenment,
Jay
