Re: Kernel 2.0.25 Modules

Gentlmen,

After doing a clean "make zlilo,modules & modules_install" and reboot, "ppp" and
the BusLogic SCSI driver are not operative. No CDROM and "pppd" responds with a not
available on this system. (No line printer either tho there are two "lpd" running.)

When I do a "modprobe ppp.o & Buslogic.o", I get the attached messages.

Are the modules "scsi.o" and "slhc.o" supposed to be in the kernel? Am I
supposed to find references to some of the programs in them in System.map? If so, I
don't.

There are references to "slhc_init"

./driver/net/slip.c, ppp.c and isdn_ppp.c;
the routine is in slhc.c.

NOTE: "modprobe slip.o" executes without error.(!)

There are references to "scsi_init_free" in

./driver/scsi/hosts.c,sl.c,sr.c,st.c,sg.c and BusLogic.c;
the routine is in scsi.c.

There is a missing link somewhere here. Can someone tell me where to look?
