I have followed all the instructions about make modules install_modules and so on. -> I have the modutils 2.1.121. -> I have the modules in /lib/modules/2.2.17/... -> and I have also updated my modules.conf with the new paths, something like: path[drivers]=/lib/modules/2.4.17/kernel/drivers/ path[net]=/lib/modules/2.4.17/kernel/net/ and so on Errors: -> My modules.dep is empty, and I know I have several dependencies and depmod -a is executed while loading. -> If I use insmod with the absolute path, then it works, but if I try to use modprobe, it does not work ( can't locate module...). -> When I use modprobe -c I get three differents paths for each modue: path[drivers]=/lib/modules/2.4.17/kernel/drivers/ ... path[drivers]=/lib/modules .... path[drivers]=/lib/modules/default So, What happens here? Is there any other file still storing the old paths and I should modify it? Are these paths stored in the kernel itself so is impossible to change then? Thanks in advance. ia
