Hi.
Sorry if this is an idiotic question, especially if it's one worthy of slapping!
I've been trying to set my system up to have multiple linux "test-bed" setups on one drive - That was done easily, I thought. However, my Caldera (freebie eDesktop 2.4) distribution won't insmod my driver, saying that a load of unresolved symbols exist. The strange thing, is that all the symbols, I thought, are supposed to be in the kernel itself. Symbols like kmalloc, iounmap, jiffies, printk.......
I've never come across this problem before. I'm pretty sure that my driver isn't the only thing on my Caldera partition that need these symbols!!!!!
Any lights?
Does the System.map file have any part in the boot (or module-loading) process? I thought it was just a text file that gets produced when the kernel is compiled showing humans (or debuggers) where everything is...
