Hi. I've got a SuSE 6.4 system running the standard kernel. I've just tried to upgrade to 2.4.2, as present in the 7.1 update area, to see if I can get my TV card to work. I downloaded the 2.4.2 default kernel RPM, and the 2.4.2 modutils RPM, and installed them both. I then edited lilo.conf to use the new kernel image, and re-ran lilo.
On re-booting, the system complained that /lib/modules/2.4.2-4GB/modules.dep (path may not be correct, but it was definitely modules.dep) was missing. This was installed from the kernel package, so, thinking something went wrong, I installed it again, re-ran LILO, and rebooted.
On boot, I got the same error. After a couple of iterations, I confirmed that somewhere in the "install package - re-run LILO - reboot" cycle, the modules.dep file disappears. None of the modules.dep files disappear from my other kernel module areas, so this appears to be peculiar to my 2.4.2 kernel.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Greetings! I`ve done the same but before rebooting again run "depmod " command!No problems afterwards. See ya Alan PS:I didnot upgrade the kernel just installed it as additional so Ican have an option to boot either.It works just fine
