Hello,

I recently downloaded kernel 2.0.35 and am running into a problem with loading
modules.

I started with a clean install from the RedHat Linux 5.1 CD and downloaded
linux-2.0.35.tar.gz to /usr/src

Then did the following:

cd /usr/src
rm linux
gzip -cd linux-2.0.35.tar.gz | tar xfv -
mv linux linux-2.0.35
ln -s linux-2.0.35 linux
cd linux
make config
make dep
make clean
make zImage
make modules
make modules_install
cp /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/boot/zImage /boot/vmlinuz-2.0.35

Then I edited /etc/lilo.conf as listed below

boot=/dev/hda
map=/boot/map
install=/boot/boot.b
prompt
timeout=50
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.0.35
     label=linux
     root=/dev/hdb1
     read-only
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.0.34-0.6
     label=linux-2.0.34
     root=/dev/hdb1
     read-only
other=/dev/hda1
     label=win95
     table=/dev/hda

Then ran /sbin/lilo

I also edited /etc/conf.modules listed below

alias net-pf-4 off
alias net-pf-5 off

On bootup, I receive the message

Loading module dependencies... can't open /lib/modules/preferred/modules.dep

If I bootup my old kernel (lilo label linux-2.0.34) I don't receive that
message. What do I do to fix this?

Thanks!
