Make all

Make install

3. Upgrade mkinitrd and find it under http://rpm.pbone.net/

Rpm-Uvh mkinitrd-3.5.11-3.9.i386.rpm

4.update modutils is downloaded from ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/modutils/

Make moveold

Ps: "make moveold" will rename the system's original modutils tool program to "* .old" (for example, lsmod.old, etc., is a very important step! If you forget this step, don't be nervous, just reinstall modutils according to step 4 above.

Make

Ps: "make: * [modprobe.conf.5] Error 127" appears when compiling with module-init-tools-3.1

Version 3.0 or 3.2-pre is recommended.

Make install
