Subject: Unresolved symbol errors with 2.4.9 kernel & recompiled modules
From: Matthew Larson (ml582@columbia.edu)

I am currently having trouble getting MOL to start up on my iBook2
running YDL 2.0 and MacOS 9.1. I have successfully run MOL on this
machine before when I was running the 2.2.19 stock kernel from Yellow
Dog. I have recompiled my kernel and am currently running the benh
kernel, 2.4.9 to be exact. I have compiled MOL from source (first
attempt, using rsync'ed code from a few weeks ago) and then I installed
the latest RPMs. The kernel modules did not match, so I downloaded the
source and recompiled a module for my current kernel, 2.4.9-benh0.
However, every time I try to start MOL (both using the RPMs and
compiling from source) using startmol I get a list of unresolved symbol
error messages, reproduced below.
Is there an easy fix for my problem? I've also trying insmoding the
various modules, and the sheep.o module gives some similar-looking
unresolved symbol errors. I am using a molrc file that worked
previously. Also, don't know if it matters but MOL seems to want to
identify my kernel as an SMP kernel, and I made sure that there was no
SMP support enabled when I recompiled this kernel.
Thanks for the help,
Matt Larson
