The `genksyms' executable is installed in /usr/bin, despite its
manual page belonging to section 8. The 1.3.47 kernel module support
at least expects to find it in /sbin. I made a symlink to pacify my

No, genksysm should be in /usr/bin
Okay, but the kernel makefile calls /sbin/genksyms explicitly, which

Actually I see now it is a kernel version issue: 1.2.13 calls
/usr/bin/genksyms, while 1.3.47 calls /sbin/genksyms. What to do?
The makefile ought to call `genksyms'. The PATH

I'm experimenting with the newer 1.3 kernels, so I'm not sure this is really a
bug (yet), although it could be.
