Balazs,
Try doing it this way:
make menuconfig
unset Set version information on all module symbols
make dep && make bzImage && make modules
back up your previous modules with mv -v /lib/modules/2.2.16<etc>
/lib/modules/2.2.16.bak
(alternatively, edit /usr/src/linux/Makefile and add something to the
EXTRAVERSION flag)
make modules_install
make bzlilo
The last command will put System.map and the new vmlinuz kernel in the /
root directory, so you need to either shift them to /boot or edit
/etc/lilo.conf to point to the files in /, and run lilo -v to update the
boot loader.

%-> I meant there is no sound card in the box. But I'm not sure

%-> what "depmod:
%-> *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.2.16-3/misc/emu10k1.o"
%-> means. Could
%-> you elaborate? Also what about the modules-info problem? Should
%-> I recompile
%-> the kernel with no sound support what so ever? (I'm assuming from your
%-> question that emu10k1.o refers to a sound module.)
%->
%-> Thanks, I appreaciate the help!
%->
%-> PS: here's the original problem description:
%->
%-> Can anyone tell me how to correct the following error:
%->
%-> depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.2.16-3/misc/emu10k1.o
%->
%-> I compiled and installed a new kernel (2.2.16-3) using the following
%-> commands:
%-> cd /usr/src/linux-2.2.16-3
%-> make menuconfig
%-> make dep
%-> make clean
%-> make install
%->
%-> Than I installed the modules using:
%-> make modules
%-> make modules_install
%->
%-> But when I rebooted I got the above error message. I get the
%-> same error if I
%-> run depmod -a. The modules seem to have been correctly installed in
%-> /lib/modules/2.2.16-3. So, why the error?
%->
%-> The only thing that seems wrong is that /boot/module-info is
%-> still linked to
%-> module-info-2.2.14-5.0 which was the old kernel before I
%-> recompiled it. But
%-> I can't find a module-info-2.2.16-3 anywhere on my system.
%-> Should there be
%-> one?
