Firstly, thanks to Hussam and John for being there.
Actually, this was kinda my bad. I installed hugemem yesterday, but restarted
my server this morning. Bothe the kernel and hugemem versions were
2.4.21-52.EL. Then, I tried to recompile dazuko, with the results I
mentioned above. However, I notice via up2date that new kernel versions were
available, so in installed those, including kernel-2.4.21-52.EL and
kernel-hugemem-2.4.21-52.EL. When I compared /lib/modules/2.4.21-50.EL
and /lib/modules/2.4.21-52.EL, I noticed that a lot was missing from the
former. So, I compiled dazuko thusly:
./comfigure --kernelsrcdir=/usr/src/linux-2.4.21-52.EL && more
and ... joy! Of course, dazuko won't work until I reboot using 2.4.21-52, but
that's certainly OK. I have no idea what happened to the guts
of /lib/modules/2.4.21-50.EL, cauing the dazuko compile to fail, but I'm good
now (I think).
Hope you all understood my explanation.
Thanks again.
