I am trying to install woody and my Broadcomm NIC is not recognized.
The

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

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

this may just be because you're installing your new kernel on top of your old kernel/modules (i'd recommend supplying your own customized value for append-to-version), and depmod is checking the new modules against symbols that are different/don't exist in the running kernel. have you actually tried rebooting into this kernel?


I am able to reboot the system, but I still get unresolved sysbols.  If
anyone has any ideas I would really like to hear them.  This is driving me
crazy.

TIA,

Jon

Look in /etc/modules and read the man page on update-modules
