That's not a nice place. Besides the fact that System.map is neither library nor module, /lib/modules is less likely to exist than /boot is. It's a wee bit slower too.
The System.map file contains info related only to the main kernel image, and nothing related to modules. So this is better:
/boot/System.map-2.4.18-pre1 /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.18-pre1 /boot/bzImage-2.4.18-pre1 /boot/config-2.4.18-pre1
(losing the foul '.' on the .config file) - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
