I'm not 100% sure about what you're seeing, but the module interface in the 2.5 tree is in a state of major flux right now. You are really going to have a tough time getting the kernel running even if you do manage to get it compiled (BTW, does the behavior change if you build IDE disk support statically into the kernel, instead of as a module?). See http://kt.zork.net/kernel-traffic/latest.html#5 for some info about the problems people are experiencing with the 2.5 tree modules. Mostly it's simply that the supporting tools aren't there yet, and the old modutils package won't work. If you revert back to 2.5.47 you might not have these problems. noah -- _______________________________________________________ | Web: http://web.morgul.net/~frodo/ | PGP Public Key: http://web.morgul.net/~frodo/mail.html
