I've gone through a long .config recovery process by looking at the entries in System.map, changing the configuration, building the kernel, diffing the new System.map with the reference one, again and again. The diff process was done only on the symbol names and the last diff states : diff -urN System.map-9 System.map-2.4.18-sound | less --- System.map-9 Tue Feb 18 13:36:33 2003 +++ System.map-2.4.18-sound Tue Feb 18 09:47:47 2003 @@ -10776,6 +10776,7 @@ d __setup_str_console_setup d __setup_str_reserve_setup d startup.0 +d configs d zone_balance_ratio d zone_balance_min d zone_balance_max Could someone direct me to where is located this "configs" stuff that I can't find ? Second question : the addresses in front of the symbols don't match (except for the first ones)... I'm using the same kernel tree, the same compiler... Any idea ?
