Log Errors

Yes, I had rebooted.  And the only thing I did that I can think of is I
deleted my /usr/src/linux-2.4.2 directory because I had upgraded my kernel
to 2.4.18.

Where is it determined that it would be looking in /lib/modules/2.4.2...
rather that /lib/modules/2.4.18?  Are the modules placed in the modules
directory at compile time?  I checked my logs for yesterday and the only
error was the rtc.o error.

I'm still trying to get a handle on how the various directories are created
and how the various files are called.  Once I have a firm understanding of
that, it will be easier to troubleshoot myself.


Thanks,
Brian
