Good evening, I have gotten kernel 2.6 to install and run PERFECTLY on both my laptops but I have a desktop machine that refuses to behave. In particularly it seems that modules aren't working. Anything I compile into the kernel works fine (except firewire) but anything compiled as a module doesn't get built or installed right or something. For the install after extracting to /usr/src/linux-2.6.2 I run make menuconfig, enabled module loading, and setup everything I need and then save the confoguration, then make, make bzImage, make modules, make modules_install, make install. Then I copy the bzImage file from /usr/src/linux-2.6.2/arch/i386/boot to /boot and configure and run lilo. After rebooting, eveything built into the kernel works fine but modules don't. During the boot process I get multiple erros saying FATAL: blah blah module not found and if I try to modprobe any modules that should be there it says it can't find them. Any ideas what might be causing this problem? Please ask for more info you need it.
