List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: Hi Shaun. Well the kernel that is currently being used has no modules compiled with it (natively). I am actually not sure about whether or not the symbol problem exists, because I don't have a spare machine to fully test the installer on. Perhaps someone could test it and report on the findings? Also the /lib/modules/2.4.18bf24 has no module dependencies file. The original root disk i.e., 2.2.17 which had the potato debootstrap didn't even have a modules.dep file. So yes you will get modprobe errors while it looks for its dependencies, however it will be interesting to see whether or not the symbol problem surfaces. > How did you get around the problem of unresolved module symbols? > On Tue, > Nov 12, 2002 at 04:29:06PM -0500, Igor Gueths wrote: > > Hi all.
