Dear Redhat users,

I am having problems getting my newly build Redhat 7.1 box to install a
module for the NC7780 network card.

I have followed the documented procedure to produce the binary object
file which now resides at:
/lib/modules/2.4.2-2/kernel/drivers/net/bcm5700.o

When I try to load this module file into the kernel,  I receive lots of
unresolved sysmbol messages eg.
#insmod bcm5700.o
unresolved symbol tasklet_wec_Rsmp_7c93d8c1
plus many more unresolved symbols!

Has anyone seen this before???

Brief description of how I built the object file:
1/ Installed the kernel-source RPM from install disk 2.
2/ cd /usr/src/linux/2.4.2-2
make mrproper
make -e KERNELRELEASE=`uname -r` oldconfig
make -e KERNELRELEASE=`uname -r` dep

3/ Install the source RPM package:
rpm -ivh bcm5700-6.0.2d-1.src.rpm

4/ Built the binary RPM for the bcm5700 driver:
cd /usr/src/redhat
rpmbuild -bb SPECS/bcm5700.spec

5/ Install the new RPM package:
rpm -ivh RPMS/i386/bcm5700-6.0.2d-1.i386.rpm

6/  Update /etc/modules.conf to add:
alias eth0 bcm5700

7/ Load the module into the kernel:
insmod bcm5700.o

This is where I get the errors ;-(

Please help!

Many thanks,
Liz Stamp.
