Issue(s) with HFS+ and 2.6.0-test8/9

[Gary Wolfe]

Greetings,

The patch proclaims support for 2.6 kernels so I have been trying to get this to work with same.  I've tried 2.6.0-test8 and now, test9.  Both with the same error:

Unknown symbol get_gendisk

Which, to me, doesn't make any sense.  I've checked, via nm, that the kernel has this symbol.  So if the kernel has it why does modprobe/insmod bitch about not finding the symbol?...it's in the KERNEL.

In any event, I'd appreciate any assistance anyone could offer.

Thanks,

Gary

get_gendisk is in /drivers/block/genhd.c, but is not presently exported for use by modules.  Add a line after the function,

EXPORT_SYMBOL(get_gendisk);

and recompile the kernel, seems to install the module just fine after that for me.
