The situation is this: I worked to get a Set Top Box to work with the latest stable 2.4 kernel, the way is clear but the box need some modules to be loaded at boot in order to get the video and audio device to work (modules that are not shipped in kernels 2.4...); now I'm building those modules separatly, compiling directly the drivers source codes with 'make', and then I insert the .o with 'insmod'. I would create a better system in which one could compile those modules directly on the 'make menuconfig' of the kernel, so I'm modifying the various Makefiles && config files, but I'm a bit confused... Any good hint?
