Modules Spaghetti

Modules Spaghetti

[Phil Carinhas]

 Hi,

  I did a make world in the source distro and the modules that were
installed point back to symlinks of symlinks.  I need to remove
the original files and install the module files in the right place.
Is there an easy way to do that? I was thinking of attempting it by
hand, but it looks very error prone to do so.

 Also, is there a way to use the standard make menuconfig type of 
tools to configure my kernel? We need some extra support. I'm familiar
with editing the .config by hand as well. Thanks,

-Phil Carinhas

Make menuconfig works just fine, you just have to make sure to set
ARCH=xen. I always need to enable automounter for my environment.

  I see now the reference to "make xconfig" in the manual. 
My oversight... What are the references to 

 build -> /home/joe/xen-2.0/linux-2.6.9-xen0
 source -> /home/kyle/xen-2.0/linux-2.6.9-xen0

 There for? Will any of that break the kernel if they are damaged?
 Comparing to my standard 2.6 kernels, they don't look critical.
 Thanks again!
