error messages from vmunix

[bassey essien_1]

I recently generated new vmunix_test kernel file to include a new driver.it was successful, but i noticed these error messages in the dmesg and syslog. it reads "modpath:
DLKM is not initialized" even after reboot.
What does these mean, and how do i get rid of it.
thanks.

Hi Bassey,

here are the steps to clear it up:

1. cd /stand/build

2. /usr/lbin/sysadm/system_prep -s system

3. mk_kernel -s system

4. kmupdate /stand/build/vmunix_test

5. shutdown -r 0

Hi Bassey,

If you are not comfortable with command line kernel updates, use SAM that will do most of the work for you.

Bassey:

Normally this error indicates that the current
version of the kernel does not match the current version of the symbol table 'symtab' in /stand/dlkm.
