Hi all,

When custom compiling kernel 2.6.3, I got all these depmod *** notices:

depmod: *** Unresolved sybmols in /lib/modules/2.6.3.20040305-orca
/kernel/drivers/acpi/thermal.ko

I read 'man depmod' and don't understand whether all this depmod output 
means my kernel install went well or badly. Installed the kernel and it seems 
to work okay.

Did I do something wrong?

Or something right?

*worried*

A new kernel image has been installed, and usually that means
that some action has to be taken to make sure that the new
kernel image is used next time the machine boots. Usually,
this entails running a ``bootloader'' like SILO, loadlin, LILO,
ELILO, QUIK, VMELILO, ZIPL, or booting from a floppy.   (Some
boot loader, like grub, for example, do not need to be run on
each new image install, so please ignore this if you are using
such a boot loader).
