[Asterisk-Users] Newbie issue. Error in compiling source code for zaptel drivers

[Frank Hoonhout]

After some more investigation, I think I know what I need to do.

Taken from the kernel-how-to docs.

3.4 The 'depmod' gives "Unresolved symbol error messages" 
When you run depmod it gives "Unresolved symbols". A sample error message is
given here to demonstrate the case: 


----------------------------------------------------------------------------
----

bash$ su - root
bash# man depmod
bash# depmod
depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in
/lib/modules/version/kernel/drivers/md/linear.o
depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in
/lib/modules/version/kernel/drivers/md/multipath.o
depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in
/lib/modules/version/kernel/drivers/md/raid0.o
depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in
/lib/modules/version/kernel/drivers/md/raid1.o
depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in
/lib/modules/version/kernel/drivers/md/raid5.o


----------------------------------------------------------------------------
----

Reason: You did not make modules and install the modules after building the
new kernel with "make bzImage". 

Solution: After you build the new kernel, you must do: 


----------------------------------------------------------------------------
----

bash$ su - root
bash# cd /usr/src/linux
bash# make modules
bash# make modules_install
