Re[2]: [uml-user] UML installed from RPM --> how I can change modules?

[<pa...@bo...>]

Hi Roland!

I'm trying recompile my own kernel from source, disabling the options CONFIG_HOSTFS
and CONFIG_MODULES, like you said.

So, I'm doing this:

make config ARCH=um
make dep ARCH=um
make linux ARCH=um
make modules ARCH=um

But, in the last part (make modules ARCH=um), I get this error:

[root@localhost linux-2.4.24]# make modules ARCH=um

The present kernel configuration has modules disabled.
Type 'make config' and enable loadable module support.
Then build a kernel with module support enabled.

make: *** [modules] Error 1
[root@localhost linux-2.4.24]# 


Any idea ???

Thank you.
