Unresolved Symbols

Postby Sapient2003 » Tue Feb 04, 2003 6:49 pm

I get errors like "depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.4.20-grsec/kernel/net/ipv6/netfilter/ip6table_mangle.o" when compiling. I do not have a clue on how to resolve this. Any help appriciated.

what was the command you used to compile your kernel?
Did this happen with an unpatched kernel also?
Did it happen if you disabled the random networking code?

Right now I am using MDK 9.0. I tried to compile the kernel sources of grsecurity and the kernel source on the MDK CD. Both give me that "Unresolved symbol" error in things other then the IP stuff. I use, in order, make dep, make bzImage, make modules, make modules_install.

try rebooting with the new kernel, then do the make modules modules_install
