Dear All, We were developed a block device driver on linux-2.6.x kernel. We want to distribute our driver as a RPM Binary. We are using the SuSE 9.1 with 2.6.5-7.71 kernel.
We build the RPM file using the fm.ko file on SuSE 9.1 with 2.6.5-7.71 kernel where fm.ko indicates our Block Driver module. When I try to run the RPM file on a different kernel version it has given the following error message. FATAL: Error inserting fm (/lib/modules/2.6.4-52-default/kernel/drivers/block/fm.ko): Invalid module format As I know the error message indicates that I compiled the driver under 2.6.5-7.71 kernel where as I am trying to insert the module in 2.6.4-52-default kernel. My question is: Is it possible to compile and build a .ko file with out including the version information? (i.e. I want to build a RPM file using fm.ko file which was compiled using 2.6.5-7.71 and to run the RPM file on a different kernel versions.) We are not very sure of how to achieve this. Please help us address this issue.
