I just decided to jump from kernel 2.1.28 to 2.1.32. Since I have a
lot of options and I don't want a big zImage, I use modules instead.
(all options are not used at the same time)
I have some unresolved symbols with my modules (smbfs, ppp, slip, lp,
cdrom too)... Usually, this means I don't have the right library to run
them but with libc 5.4.23 ...
Any ideas?

Go to Makefile, and comment out SMP=1.Quote:> I just decided to jump from kernel 2.1.28 to 2.1.32. Since I have a

1. Module problems with 2.1.32 kernel
I recently upgraded my kernel 2.1.28 to the 2.1.32. I am using
libc.so.5.4.23 and gcc 2.1.7.1. I compiled the kernel with several
modules. The kernel is perfect, the modules are kinda buggy (well, non
functionnal at all).
Here are my entries in the syslog:
Apr 10 10:35:00 photon insmod: /lib/modules/2.1.32/net/ppp.o: unresolved
symbol __global_cli
Apr 10 10:35:00 photon insmod: /lib/modules/2.1.32/net/ppp.o: unresolved
symbol __global_save_flags
Apr 10 10:35:00 photon insmod: /lib/modules/2.1.32/net/ppp.o: unresolved
symbol waitqueue_lock
Apr 10 10:35:00 photon insmod: /lib/modules/2.1.32/net/ppp.o: unresolved
symbol __global_restore_flags
and many more in ppp.o,
Apr 10 10:36:55 photon insmod: /lib/modules/2.1.32/fs/nfs.o: unresolved
symbol rpc_wake_up_task_R3b2c2b11
Apr 10 10:36:55 photon insmod: /lib/modules/2.1.32/fs/nfs.o: unresolved
symbol rpc_init_task_R9e1a6ece
Apr 10 10:36:55 photon insmod: /lib/modules/2.1.32/fs/nfs.o: unresolved
symbol nlmclnt_proc_R10b41ccc
and a lot more in nfs.o
Apr 10 10:39:38 photon insmod: /lib/modules/2.1.32/misc/ipx.o:
unresolved symbol __global_cli
Apr 10 10:39:38 photon insmod: /lib/modules/2.1.32/misc/ipx.o:
unresolved symbol __global_save_flags
Apr 10 10:39:38 photon insmod: /lib/modules/2.1.32/misc/ipx.o:
unresolved symbol __global_restore_flags
which seems to be the same as ppp.o
I won't post the others since I think you get the idea.
Any suggestions? Is this a normal bug for 2.1.32 or is it that one of
my libraries is outdated?
