[uml-user] insmod problems

[Deep D. <dee...@ho...>]

Hello folks,

I built a 2.6.5 uml patched kernel and started it up with a Fedora Core 2 
file system. It seems like the FC2 file system was built with a 2.6.5 kernel 
(with extraversion -1.327). Now whenever I tried to compile even a very 
simple module in the uml and try to insmod it, I get an error about version 
incompatibilities:

Dec  6 12:00:54 fedora2 kernel: hello_1: disagrees about version of symbol 
struct_module

I guessed this resulted from the slightly modified kernel against which the 
file system was built and to get around this, I installed the kernel src 
against which I had build the UML kernel and tried to rebuild the module. 
Even that ended up with the above error.

My makefile looks like this:

-bash-2.05b# cat Makefile
    ifneq ($(KERNELRELEASE),)
    obj-m       := hello-1.o

    else
    KDIR        := /usr/src/linux-2.6.5
    PWD         := $(shell pwd)

    default:
        $(MAKE) -C $(KDIR) SUBDIRS=$(PWD) modules
    endif
-bash-2.05b#


Any help on how I can insmod modules inside UML will be highly appreciated.

Thanks !
