Hi mailing list. First of all I would like to tell you please to send a copy of all answers to michael@wtf.dk. Thanks. This is my first Linux "bug report", and I would like you to tell me if I did anything wrong, or if you need anymore info. I hope you can use this for anything. The reason I sent the mail to the mailing list, was that I wasn't sure where else to send it. [1.] I'm having problems with booting the linux-2.6-test1. [2.] I'm not sure if I am messing with two different problems. At compile-time I get some depmod: Unresolved symbols and later, when I try to boot the kernel, it simply hangs at "Uncompressing Linux... Ok, booting the kernel". As I said, I'm not sure if it is two different problems. I will attach the depmod-errors to this email. I will also attach my .config. [3.] Keywords? Booting, kernel, depmod, unresolved symbols. [4.] $ cat /proc/version Linux version 2.4.21 (root@sokrates) (gcc version 3.3 (Debian)) #1 Sat Jun 28 12:00:48 CEST 2003. NOTE: This is not the kernel I am trying to compile!

Are they important? -- Med Venlig Hilsen/Best Regards/Mit freundlichen Grüßen Michael Kristensen
