Somebody in the thread at some point said:
0x0059aee8 in strcmp () from /lib/libc.so.6 (gdb) bt #0 0x0059aee8 in strcmp () from /lib/libc.so.6 #1 0x0804ba7c in load_section32 (hdr=0xb1601b8, secname=0x8059c47 "__ksymtab_strings", size=0xbf9510e8, conv=0) at moduleops_core.c:18 #2 0x0804c064 in load_symbols32 (module=0xadbfe88) at moduleops_core.c:34 #3 0x0804ae48 in main (argc=2, argv=Cannot access memory at address 0x5aadd37c ) at depmod.c:687 #4 0x00542f70 in __libc_start_main () from /lib/libc.so.6 #5 0x08048ea1 in _start () #######
I'm guessing that #3 is the problem (cannot access memory at address). I guess I could file a bug if no one else has any suggestions?
__ksymtab_strings seems to be a section in vmlinux / z... is it possible that the /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.blah file is unhappy? Or /boot is not mounted, /tmp is full, anything like that?
