I tried -git8 last night.
make all modules_install install gave me again this error:

if [ -r System.map -a -x /sbin/depmod ]; then /sbin/depmod -ae -F System.map  
2.6.15-git8; fi

I had to pull the plug, because the reset switch did not work.

I will try the nexft git version this night, but I have to wait some more 
hours.


Glück Auf

Do you have KBUILD_OUTPUT set in your environment?
That may explain it since things are running too much in parallel with
KBUILT_OUTPUT set - reported by Keith Owns a few days ago.

I have tried the above on my machine and was not able to reproduce it.

Can you please drop me the output with V=1 so I can see what is
happening. Maybe in private mail if it gets too big.

	Sam

no, at least I don't find it, when I type env.

I tried make all modules_install install V=1 &>/tmp/kernel2.log and found 
something interessting.

The kernel-sources directory has to be 'virgin'. As soon as I build a kernel 
in it once, it worked without any problems - even after a make clean and make 
mrproper.

So the steps to reproduce it are:
unpack 2.6.15, patch it, copy .config from other kernel (this time I took the 
one from git8 I built earlier), make oldconfig, make all_modules_install 
install:

f [ -r System.map -a -x /sbin/depmod ]; then /sbin/depmod -ae -F System.map  
2.
6.15-git7; fi
WARNING: Couldn't open directory /lib/modules/2.6.15-git7: No such file or 
direc
tory
FATAL: Could not open /lib/modules/2.6.15-git7/modules.dep.temp for writing: 
No
such file or directory
make: *** [_modinst_post] Fehler 1

because kernel2.log is 748kb big., I packed it.

Glück Auf
Volker

This proved to be why it worked for me.
The fix was simple. We have to evaluate MODLIB late so we have
.kernelrelease created when evaluating MODLIB.
Following patch fixes it:
