[ARMedslack] Linux 2.6.35 problems

[Stuart Winter]

Hi folks


Has anyone tried compiling 2.6.35rc5 ?
I wanted to build it to include the patch for OpenRD "Ultimate", and
2.6.35 also contains the Guruplug patches and other bits that were
included in our 2.6.33 kernel.

I've tried the kernel with and without these patches.


I built it using the config file for 2.6.33.6, and make oldconfig.

Booting the installer, or upgradepkg'g to the new packages results in:

root at slackware:/etc/rc.d# uname -a
Linux slackware 2.6.35rc5-kirkwood #2 PREEMPT Thu Jul 15 21:50:04 BST 2010
armv5tel GNU/Linux
root at slackware:/etc/rc.d# modprobe dm-mod
FATAL: Error inserting dm_mod
(/lib/modules/2.6.35rc5-kirkwood/kernel/drivers/md/dm-mod.ko.gz): Invalid
module format

The problem persists if I gunzip them first, too.

The problem first appears in dmesg as:
