[PLUG] Compiling modules on Debian

["Jon Nelson" <quincy@linuxnotes.net>]

Hi all,

I am trying to install woody and my Broadcomm NIC is not recognized.  The
kernel installed on the box is 2.4.18-bf2.4.  I downloaded the kernel
source and the module source to a separate machine and tried to compile
the module.

To do this I copied /boot/config-2.4.18-bf2.4 from the target machine to
.config in kernel source dir on the other box.  I then did:

    make-kpkg clean
    make-kpkg modules_clean
    make-kpkg --config menuconfig --append_to_version -bf2.4 modules_image

I had done this without '--config menuconfig' and I got prompted for a
bunch of kernel params, which I said no to.  Doing it this way I just
exited out of menuconfig and saved the current config.

I then copied the resulting .deb to the target machine and installed it. 
Doing this I got the error:

    *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.4.18-bf2.4/bcm/bcm5700.o

I am not sure how to over come this.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

depmod -e to follow....

TIA,

Jon
