There should be more info on it in the readme stuff with the kernel source. That's why this is turned off by default in the config. Did you recompile _all_ of your modules when you compiled this kernel? You need to do that if you have this option enabled (I think, anyway). I thought the opposite is true: enable MODVERSIONS if I want to use modules from different versions. That's what make config tells me, as I understand it. BTW: I had recompiled all modules. Of course, Dale may be right in that you only need to run a depmod -a. Oops! Yes, thanks, that helped it. I must admit that I didn't read the documentation. I wonder why I had no dependancy problems with older 2.0.x kernels with the same config. One could put /sbin/depmod -a into a startup script as suggested by Documentation/modules.txt.

No dependancy information for modules with kernel 2.0.27
Hello, I installed debian 1.2 the other day and compiled a new kernel (2.0.27) The new kernel was unable to load any modules during bootup. It just said: 'Can't find dependancy information for module mcd.o' and the like. What went wrong? Is it because I have kerneld 2.0.0? Where would I get a kerneld 2.0.27 if such a thing exists? Here's what I did: 'make config dep clean zImage modules modules_install ; cp \ arch/i386/boot/zImage / ; lilo' I chose CONFIG_MODULES=y CONFIG_MODVERSIONS=y CONFIG_KERNELD=y in config. What's wrong?
