From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4.1) Gecko/20031030 Description of problem: depmod reports undefined symbols in the ide modules. The symbols appear to be defined in the ide-probe module, but circular references prevent depmod from producing a usable dependency list. In order to use a soundblaster 16 ide interface as something other than ide3, ide support *MUST* be modular to allow isapnp configuration to take place before ide resources are assigned. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.4.22-1.2174.nptl How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.make xconfig (or menuconfig) 2.for "block devices/ata/atapi support", choose "m" 3.make modules_install Actual Results: Undefined symbols reported by depmod Expected Results: No errors Additional info:
Known problem, upstream too. You should however be able to build all of IDE compiled in except ide-pnp
Building without ide-pnp is useless, as the hardware prompting this kernel configuration is definitely ide-pnp (sb16) in need of pnp configuration prior to ide activation. This problem being known and upstream is good news, and the developers responsible for it may be thinking about it.
