[syslinux] Compile an additional driver module

[Eckat]

Hello everone,

I am new to this mailing list. I am regarding problems while trying to 
load an additional driver module. The module is sundance.o, used for 
D-Link DFE 550 nics. I downloaded this driver tarball from the D-Links 
website. I am using Syslinux 1.52 which is based on the 2.4.18 kernel. My 
syslinux is embedded on three floppy disks and all works pretty well and 
boots up without any problems. Now when I try to implement the driver 
modules it fails to load. Getting the message: The module sundance.o is 
complied for kernel version 2.4.xx / This is kernel 2.4.18. I am 
understanding the message, cause it's true I compiled the driver on 
another machine and simply copied the .o file to my (in this case) third 
disk of syslinux. Even insmod -f sundance.o doesn't work. How is it 
possible to get a 2.4.18 kernel compiled version of my module? Sorry if 
this sounds dumb for you all, but I hope someone can help and give a 
little hint.

Thank you.
