You probably don't need to do that. modprobe and insmod while whine about the module, but if you use insmod -f on it, it'll probably work fine. > But if I 'make install' the kernel to put it on /dev/hda5 and then > run lilo: everything seems "right"; /vmlinuz is a symlink to 2.2.12 > in the /boot directory; similarly, the other symlinks point to > 2.2.12 tings., but /proc/version still says 2.2.15 is running. Huh? > What'd I miss. Probably /etc/lilo.conf. You can have multiple kernels mentioned there, so edit it and rerun lilo. (However, I'd try insmod -f first. It'll probably work. It seems to for our Dell Inspiron 7500s, anyway, which use what I presume is the same module.)
