Before you compile your module you must prepare the sources, so they reflect the running kernel
cd /usr/src/linux make mrproper make cloneconfig make dep touch /usr/src/linux/include/linux/modversions.h
I would like to compile the 2.4.20 kernel but I keep running into 'kernel panic' messages when I try to boot the new kernel.
So I wanted to try this approach, until now I copied '/boot/vmlinuz.config' to '/ugkernel/old.config' before running 'make oldconfig'.
I downloaded and extracted the sources (tar.bz2 file from kernel.org) to /ugkernel/linux-2.4.20/.
You need to use the suse kernel sources if you want to use "cloneconfig", it won't work on the vanilla sources from kernel.org, unless you apply all the suse patches. -- use Perl; #powerful programmable prestidigitation
