Hi Matt, if you're getting those "module not found" errors in one bunch, I'd presume this happens during the initscript of module-init-tools, which tries to load every module mentioned in /etc/modules. There might be some leftovers from previous kernel/module-configurations in there. Check the contents of the file against the error list you get, and against the present modules in /lib/modules/2.6.12/ . If that doesn't (or insufficiently) solve your problem, you should post a small excerpt from your bootlog containing the error messages. HTH, Jan -- Jan C. Nordholz <jckn At gmx net>
