Re: [coLinux-users] colinux with fedora

Yes, your image had perhaps modules for older kernel. Your network would 
not work. You need an update of /lib/modules into image.
To do this, You need a running linux, but not from this image self.

Go on linux, or run Linux from other PC or boot Linux from Knoppix, 
login as root
Mount your Image fc1_2GB_root.out as loop
  # mkdir /tmp/fc1
  # mount -o loop /PathToFile/fc1_2GB_root.out /tmp/fc1
Extraxt the kernel modules into the mounted image
  # cd /tmp/fc1
  # tar xfz /PathToFile/vmlinux-modules.tar.gz
  # cd /
You will find your missing file modules.dep and directory for Kernel 
modules now, check this
  # ls -la /tmp/fc1/lib/modules/2.4.26-co-0.6.1
Unmount the loop image
  # umount /tmp/fc1

Now ist the file fc1_2GB_root.out ready to use.
Copy it to your PC for running under Windows.
