I encountered a similar problem. You can do something like this (Typed on the fly. Check for bugs and sanity. May require bash):
for i in $(opkg list_installed | grep -E '^kernel-module' | awk '{ print $1 }'); do opkg remove -force-depends "$i"; done; opkg install kernel-modules On Saturday 01 November 2008 12:03:18 Vasco Névoa wrote: > Distro: FDOM (Fat_and_Dirty_OM.200809_20081023.rootfs.jffs2) > > Hi. > > I'm fiddling with kernels and modules, and I think I tripped over a very > nasty situation. > When I do "opkg install -force-reinstall kernel-modules", it installs > just the main package, and not the modules themselves. > I have no simple way of installing the kernel modules, unless I do them > one by one.
