Any Kernel mavens around?
Here's how this changed after I copied the system map into the /boot directory Apr 30 08:43:45 main syslogd 1.3-3#31: restart. Apr 30 08:43:45 main kernel: klogd 1.3-3#31, log source = /proc/kmsg started. Apr 30 08:43:46 main kernel: Inspecting /boot/System.map Apr 30 08:43:46 main kernel: Loaded 5723 symbols from /boot/System.map. Apr 30 08:43:46 main kernel: Symbols match kernel version 2.2.6. Apr 30 08:43:46 main kernel: Loaded 51 symbols from 4 modules. Apr 30 08:43:46 main kernel: Linux version 2.2.6 ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) (gcc version 2.7.2.3) #1 Tue Apr 20 22:43:57 EDT 1999 Apr 30 08:43:46 main kernel: Detected 451029794 Hz processor. So it looks like the kernel *does* need this file. What's the function and why did it work without it? -- Arcady Genkin "I opened up my wallet, and it's full of blood..." - GsYDE
