kernel upgrade; modules not loading
This is my first time doing a kernel upgrade The Debian
Way(tm).
I am running sid on a Celeron system and am trying to
upgrade from a 2.2.18 kernel to a 2.4.17.
I downloaded the 2.4.17 tarball from kernel.org, and did
the following:
make clean
make xconfig
make-kpkg kernel_image
cd ..
dpkg -i linux-2.4.17(plus extensions).deb
I then fixed LILO to see the new kernel, and rebooted. It
worked, but for some reason my modules (eg, my soundcard
and my ethernet card drivers) are not available.
Did I miss something? Is there an equivalent to make
modules and make modules_install that I'm missing? I
expected the make-kpkg to automate the modules.
Thanks for any help.
