See, you're the second person to point that out.
Why does that work? Yeah, I know that it does work but dang it, I shouldn't
hafta delete old versions of things. By adding stuff to EXTRAVERSION in the
toplevel makefile this shouldn't be an issue.
The default EXTRAVERSION in the Red Hat sources is "-20" so that you get a
kernel version of "2.2.12-20". In theory, if I change EXTRAVERSION to
"-20test" I should get a kernel version of "2.2.12-20test" and my modules
will be in "/lib/modules/2.2.12-20test/" thereby nicely avoiding overwriting
my old versions.
That part works, I did it.
Problem is, something, somewhere is still looking for symbol info under
2.2.12-20 and that ain't right.
(EXTRAVERSION, by the way, is not a Red Hat thing, it's part of the 2.2
tree)
Well, for what it's worth, I just finished building 2.2.14. Hopefully
that'll just work around the problem. Ugh, I really didn't want to answer
all those &#@$% yes/module/no questions... :).
