i can't mount my cdrom,floppy my dos partitions nothing...
any problem in my compilation..please help
also please do mention the syntax to be used vfat or vfat_fs..ntfs or ntfs_fs simillarly others...
Did you?
Did you selected those file systems in kernel compilation?
load modules???
Did you try load these modules?
I think that if these modules are not included in kernel, you try to load these modules by manual.
trying to load modules manually
hi
i tried to load the modules using modprobe(correct rite?)
eg
taking the eg for vfat
i found vat module vfat.ko(isn't this) in /lib/modules/kernel-2.6-test11/../fs/vfat/vfat.ko
but when i tried modprobe the above path
i got the error message can't load the module cannot find it!!!!!!
now should i change something in my /boot directory.i changed the System.map file anything else?
please help
trying to load modules manually
hi,
is
/lib/modules/kernel-2.6-test11/../fs/vfat/vfat.ko
really the dir name of the modules ?
you should try to rename the dir
mv -v /lib/modules/kernel-2.6-test11/ /lib/modules/2.6-test11
then it should work
greetings and happy x-mas

new modutils?
for the 2.6.0 kernel, new modules loader utils have been released... the 2.4 modutils dont work.... get them at http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/module-init-tools/module-in.... i believe the steps are aprox:
tar -xjvf module-init-tools-3.0-pre1.tar.bz2
cd module-init-tools-3.0-pre1
configure prefix=/
make moveold
make
make install
then try modprobe/depmod/insmod and whatever else...
Mount problems
I have the same prob, but, my modules will not load, so I can't get module-init-tools.
It's On a floppy!!!!
Crap!!!!
Other than this, I like 2.6.0
Modules
It happened to me when I compiled the 2.6.0 kernel as a 2.4.x kernel.
2.6.x is quite easy. After configuration,
# make && make modules && make modules_install && make install
'make install ' will set system.map and initrd correctly, but will change /boot/vminuz link (which points to you actual kernel), so you better make a backup of the grub/lilo entries or just clone a (working) one and edit vmlinuz-xxxxx depending on your old kernel.
After boot try #lsmod.
