iBCS compiling

[steve@nestor.wlu.ca (Steve Izma)]

I'm trying to compile iBCS for kernel 2.0.30. I've gotten the
source code tar file: ibcs_970212.orig.tar from the August 1997
Info Magic disks. The code compiles easily enough and installs.
Using insmod iBCS does not produce a kernel mis-match, but the
loading fails with:

/lib/modules/misc/iBCS: unresolved symbol apic_reg

I can't find any reference to this symbol in the .c or .h files
among the source. It sounds like this version of iBCS depends on
the installation of another module but I can't find any
indication of what that should be.

Has anyone know how to deal with this problem?

Also, is there a way of using the binary of iBCS that is supplied
with any particular debian release with kernel versions other
than the one that comes in that release?

Thanks,
