Re: Moving to the 2.6 kernel

[Panos <bouklispanos@yahoo.gr>]

I did it with Woody (2.6.6). Youe problem propably is not just
module-init-tools..! Before trying you new kernel be sure you have not
only the latest module-init-tools but also some other utilities.. I
remember I had to update the following:

procps (to find version: "#ps --version", minimum version: 2.0.9)
e2fsprogs (if you use the ext2/ext3 filesystem, "#tune2fs", min.v.:1.29)
reiserfsprogs (if you use the reiser fs, "#reiserfsck -V 2>&1 | grep
reiserfsprogs", min.v.: 3.6.3)

If you use other filesystems check this:
jfsutils (jfs, "#fsck.jfs -V", min.v.: 1.0.14)
xfsprogs (xfs, "#xfs_db -V", min.v.: 2.1.0)

Of course as everyone mentioned you have to update module-init-tools and
_maybe_ rename your /etc/modules.conf into /etc/modprobe.conf (I do not
remember if I did it manually)

Hope I helped :)
