This isn't really a script. Just a four line listing of what I did to get
my modules to install. From what I understand in the kernel makefile (and I
don't really understand much), this is what it does.
First, I do a `make modules_install` to get /lib/modules set up with the
symbolic links and the kernel directory in it. Then I do a couple of find
commands to get the .ko files and their directory names. Then I make those
directories in /lib/modules/2.6.14.3-grsec/kernel, and copy the .ko files
there. Finally, I do a depmod to get the modules found by the kernel on
reboot.
This has worked for me, and I doubt it's very proper. I don't have a
mission critical production server I'm using it on, and I don't believe a
mission critical production server would be using modules anyway. Is there
some work being done towards a patch for that 'virtual memory exhausted' bug
in make 3.80 for the next book? The CVS snapshot I grabbed and compiled
seemed to have fixed that problem, but when I was looking for a solution to
that problem through an 'official' patch, I didn't come up with anything.
cd /usr/src/linux-2.6.14.3
make modules_install
for F in `find . -name *.ko | cut -d . -f 2-` ; do mkdir -p
/lib/modules/2.6.14.3-grsec/kernel`dirname $F` ; done
for F in `find . -name *.ko | cut -d . -f 2- | cut -d "/" -f 2-` ; do cp $F
/lib/modules/2.6.14.3-grsec/kernel/$F ; done
depmod -ae -F System.map 2.6.14.3-grsec
