I have two kernels running, one 2.2.20 installed from purchased disks and one 2.4.27 that was created by recompiling the "old fashioned" way, ie not by a debian package but from the sources that came from kernel.org.
The problem is this: running the old linux there are a few modules installed that make the cdrom work properly and the floppy work. There are many modules available from the "modconf" program that are not loaded. In the new kernel, none of that is there; no modules are loaded and the only one that "modconf" can see is a "dummy" one in the net directory. Can I simply copy the contents of /lib/modules/'uname -r'/ over? Can it be that simple? I am afraid to do that thinking that things will become unstable if I "force" things upon the new kernel that way. _______________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
