Subject: Re: 2.5.74-mm3 - module-init-tools: necessary to replace root copies?
Date: 10 Jul 2003 01:15:46 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1057824947.26963.31.camel@www.piet.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20030710001853.5a3597b7.akpm@osdl.org>

I followed your suggestion of installing the module-init-tools
to get around the "make modules_install" problem. I modified
the kernel Makefile to point to /usr/local:

	#DEPMOD         = /sbin/depmod
	DEPMOD          = /usr/local/sbin/depmod

I expect it's likely necessary to copy the /usr/local
copies over the / copies so that they are available to
the boot code; Perhaps not. 

I thought I check to see how you and/or others did
to for using the newer module-init-tools.

Also, do you think it's better to enable the use
frame pointer when using kgdb. In the past I thought
I had problems with modules due to my enabling the
frame pointer being used.
