Subject: ext2 module in 2.4.18-pre4 broken?

Making ext2 as a module in 2.4.18-pre4 seems to be broken.



depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in
/lib/modules/2.4.18-pre4/kernel/fs/ext2/ext2.o
depmod: waitfor_one_page



is this true or just something patching seems to have messed up over the
versions?

Add "EXPORT_SYMBOL(waitfor_one_page);" to linux/kernel/ksyms.c (without
the quotes).

Read the archive. Just a bug, you need to export that variable from
kernel/ksyms.c.

Later, Juan.
