HI
I just finished re-compiling the 2.2.17 kernel and have the same "char-msg-4 missing" error message. It doesn't sem to be hurting anything, and my SuSE 6.3 router/firewall box seems to be doing everything that it was doing before I compiled the kernel. I have not tried everything yet, including
added modules that I wanted to include. But I am hoping that someone here knows what this "char-msg-4 missing" error message is all about. I eagerly await the answer...)
I'm not familiar with a char-msg-4. Are you sure it's not char-major-4? That would be the serial module. Check your /etc/modules.conf for the module
Thanks to both Ken and Nick for their replies. I investigated and saw that
you were both correct on the char-major-4 issue.

causing the problem and # it out. Usually I've encountered similar messages when I've not compiled support for a certain module (i.e. IPX, IPv6, etc.), yet there's still an entry in modules.conf for it. As you said though, it's not harming anything, just more of an annoyance.
Cheers!
