Tom, This sounds like the default of devfs being turned on in the new kernel problem. Reboot your old kernel (if you can), go into the kernel source top level directory, and do a make menuconfig. Go into file systems and turn off devfs support, recompile, re-run zipl, reboot. Mark Post

SuSE 2.4.7: gcc compiler doesn't like extern inline

Hello everyone, If a C function is described as extern inline, gcc doesn't make the function's name visible to the linker, and it becomes unresolved. I'm writing a Linux driver, and I'm testing it via insmod/rmmod commands (to avoid re-linking the kernel every time I make a change). Any
