Hello,
I have try many times to compile a kernel 2.4.18 and 2.4.19 for my k6-2 (it 
is a desktop computer i don't need pcmia as a module or compiled in the 
kernel so i haven't stick it) but every time there si a bug when i make "make 
modules_install" I can see this bug !!!  Can you help me please ? I think 
it's a bug, what do you think about this ?

make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux/arch/i386/mm'
make -C  arch/i386/lib modules_install
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux/arch/i386/lib'
make[1]: Nothing to be done for `modules_install'.
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux/arch/i386/lib'
cd /lib/modules/2.4.18; \
mkdir -p pcmcia; \
find kernel -path '*/pcmcia/*' -name '*.o' | xargs -i -r ln -sf ../{} pcmcia
if [ -r System.map ]; then /sbin/depmod -ae -F System.map  2.4.18; fi
depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.4.18/kernel/fs/binfmt_elf.o
depmod: 	empty_zero_page
depmod: 	get_user_pages
make: *** [_modinst_post] Error 1

A big thanks !!!!

for 2.4.18 this is true, but I think it cannot be true for 2.4.19. The missing 
things were added in 2.4.19-pre1. Patch attached for 2.4.18.
