Hi!

I'm currently running 2.0.33 with modules (scsi, nic, ...) and a few days
ago I got following troubles:

The kernel still booted as usual but I couldn't loal modules any more
(manual & with kerneld).
I looked at /var/log/messages where the kernel told me something like:

"4203 Symbols loaded from /boot/System.map"
"No module symbols loaded"

(Sorry for beeing not exact...I'm currently sitting on another machine)

My question is: Where should the kernel the information for module
symbols get from (which file)?

Furthermore everytime I tried with modprobe/insmod to load a module in
/var/log/messages i found a message: "modprobe: can't locate module
binfmt-10"

Thanks for answers,

Roman
