Did you just upgrade your kernel? (I know 2.2.18pre21 or something just came out). I usually just make a symlink from /boot/System.map to /usr/src/linux/System.map. Then whenever I upgrade my kernel my System map stays consistent. Chris On Tue, Nov 21, 2000 at 04:37:58P

Hi, Firstly, get a newer kernel-package package, if at all possible. The newer kernel-package no longer tries to put vmlinux on /boot (there used to be a reason, but that is no longer usefule for post 2.0 kernels). vmlinux is produced in the normal process of building a kernel

Just a thought - when I compile and installed my own kernel, I used the zImage kernel. I played with make-kpkg, and this wants to put the files vmlinuz & vmlinux in /boot. Would using zImage instead of vmlinux cause problems? How do I produce vmlinux from the kernel source? BTW, I can't see a
