Well, I didn't see Wichert's note about modutils being broken, and
now I've gotten into a state. I tried updating my kernel from 2.4.9 to
kernel-image-2.4.10-k6, and the upgrade of modutils failed because of
the unresolved symbols from the ieee1394 driver.
Here's the output from dpkg:
syrinx:~# dpkg --configure modutils
Setting up modutils (2.4.10-1) ...
depmod: Unexpected value (20) in
'/lib/modules/2.4.9-k6/kernel/drivers/ieee1394/sbp2.o' for ieee1394_device_size
It is likely that the kernel structure has changed, if so then
you probably need a new version of modutils to handle this kernel.
Check linux/Documentation/Changes.
dpkg: error processing modutils (--configure):
subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 255
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of kernel-image-2.4.10-k6:
kernel-image-2.4.10-k6 depends on modutils (>= 2.3.12); however:
Package modutils is not configured yet.
dpkg: error processing kernel-image-2.4.10-k6 (--configure):
dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
Errors were encountered while processing:
modutils
kernel-image-2.4.10-k6
So the question is what should I do to correct this?
Thanks,
