[svlug] Kernel Trouble

[Karl F. Larsen]

	I have made a huge 2.2.17 kernel with an even larger batch of
modules. Using it now and no complaints except it's a pain to have all
that stuff turned on that I will NEVER USE!

	So I did the un-thinkable. I decided to clean up the kernel and
turn off the stuff I will never have on this computer, like raid hard
drives and 40 scsi controllers. When I got done the kernel is large but
not too large to make with 'make boot'. But when I compile the modules I
get an error I just can't locate and fix. Here is the error page:


cc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux-2.2.17/include -Wall
-Wstrict-prototypes -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -fno-strict-aliasing
-pipe -fno-strength-reduce -m486 -malign-loops=2 -malign-jumps=2
-malign-functions=2 -DCPU=586 -DMODULE -DMODVERSIONS -include

radio-miropcm20.o radio-miropcm20.c

	You can see it has someting to do with radio-miropcm20.o and I
have no idea what this stuff is or how to find that driver and turn it
off. I'm sure I don't need it...:-)
