From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.2) Gecko/20010809 Description of problem: I upgraded to kernel-2.4.7-6 via up2date (along with source code). I decided to build a custom kernel and install it. When I did, I noticed that all modules were installed in /lib/modules/2.4.7-6custom. After rebooting, I noticed that kernel though is still reporting a uname -r of 2.4.7-6 and is trying to access the wrong modules. I kinda like the idea of adding the custom to all source code so users will not overwrite their known good kernel and modules. BUT for it to work, you will also need to modify /usr/src/linux-2.4/include/linux/version.h to add this keyword as well. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Download source and compile 2. Install 3. Reboot and watch module dependency failures. Additional info:
Woops... The version.h is supposed to be rebuild automatically when you rebuild your tree; I suspect a missing Makefile dependency, will check Thanks for the report!
Ok fix works. Thanks for reporting this!
