Hello, Features selected with '*' in make kernel_menuconfig are statically linked to the kernel, so they should be available in your image. Features selected with 'M' in make kernel_menuconfig are compiled as modules, and those modules are NOT copied into the modules package unless the same module is selected in make menuconfig. If you miss a specific module, you can change one of the file in openwrt/package/kernel/modules/ to include the missing module (using the other lines as samples) and propose the patch to the mailing list. This is just a matter of adding: === define KernelPackage/the-module-I-want-to-add SUBMENU:=$(A_MENU_VARIABLE) TITLE:=The module description KCONFIG:=CONFIG_MODULE_SELECTION_SYMBOL FILES:=$(LINUX_DIR)/path.to/module.ko AUTOLOAD:=$(call AutoLoad,the_module_order,module) endef define KernelPackage/the-module-I-want-to-add/description Description endef $(eval $(call KernelPackage,the-module-I-want-to-add)) === Available menu variables are defined in the various *.mk files in the openwrt/package/kernel/modules/ directory. The module order is an integer (from 00 to 99) which will be used to create the script that will be used to load the module. Since OpenWRT does not use any module dependency management tool, you have to handle this by yourself, meaning that you must make sure that you module * is insmoded after the module it depends on. * is insmoded before the modules that depends on it. Once you added the correct lines, you can do another "make menuconfig" - and your module will show up.
