List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: Hi Greg. Yes I did fix the problem with my controller, the problem was = that I had only compiled in the driver which supported only a single = controller, and it turns out I have two ide controllers. However, the = only thing that is happening with 2.4.17 is that I get the following = when booting: Modprobe Modprobe: Can't locate Module Net BF or something = like that. I am now compiling the bzImage for 2.4.18 to see if I can fix = the problem with a new kernel. But why would I get that error? = Considering that the dependencies file was created properly, and the = rest of the kernel compiled fine. It doesn't really make sense. This is = why I asked about depmod in the last message. Thanks for any help = regarding this! ----- Original Message -----=20 From: Gregory Nowak To: Sent: Thursday, March 14, 2002 9:33 PM Subject: Re: root filesystem > Does your kernel have support for your controller? > Greg >=20 >=20 > On Thu, Mar 14, 2002 at 06:19:33PM -0500, Igor Gueths wrote: > > Hi listers.
