Problems with 2.4.5ac1[78]

Problems with 2.4.5ac1[78]

[Meino Christian Cramer]

Hi,

 I tried to compile linux-2.4.5ac17 with processor type "Athlon"
 settings.

 Compilation/Install was successful. But boot produces dozens of
 "unresolved symbols" if trying to insmod any of the modules.

 Not one module was insmodded successfully.

 I tried PENTIUM III setting, which works fine.
 
 What's goiing on here ;-)

 What is it, what I am doing wrong.

 The modutils version is 2.4.6

 Any help VERY welcone ;-)
 Thank you very much in advance !

   keep hacking the right site of life ! :-)

Sounds like your build wasnt clean. Save your .config file and make distclean
is sometimes needed when changing SMP or CPU types - yes its a bug in the
config setup really

Thanks a lot, Alan ! :o)

That's it! My build-script only did a make dep _clean_ bzImage modules
modules_install.
With a make distclean before all runs smooth...
