Description nixnut (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-08-12 00:24:29 UTC
On boot the modules i2c-voodoo3 and pcilynx fail to load on my B&W G3.

dmesg shows:

i2c_voodoo3: version magic '2.6.17-gentoo-r5 mod_unload gcc-4.1' should be '2.6.17-gentoo-r5 SMP mod_unload gcc-4.1'

A manual modprobe shows the message below:

This bug also affects mounting: the modules to mount HFS don't load, so for example i can't mount my OSX partition where i have stored backups for testing 2006.1
Comment 3 Andrew Gaffney (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-08-12 12:00:03 UTC
This look like a DUPE of bug 126688 from 2006.0

I just tested to mount a HFS-partition on my Pegasos.

The module is not loaded automatically.  So mount hfsplus is needed.  After that it's possible to mount the partition with mount -t hfsplus.

When if i try to load the module hfsplus manually with "modprobe hfsplus" i'm getting this error:
"hfsplus: version magic '2.6.17-gentoo-r5 mod_unload gcc-4.1' should be '2.6.17-gentoo-r5 SMP mod_unload gcc-4.1
FATAL: Error inserting hfsplus
(/lib/modules/2.6.17-gentoo-r5/kernel/fs/hfsplus/hfsplus.ko): Invalid module format"

When i try "mount -t hfsplus ...", this error:
"hfsplus: version magic '2.6.17-gentoo-r5 mod_unload gcc-4.1' should be 2.6.17-gentoo-r5 SMP mod_unload gcc-4.1
mount: unknown filesystem 'hfsplus'"

Maybe on Pegasos systems is running another kernel than on Apple's PPC32 systems!

Uhm, yes, they do.  At least they need another config.

The only difference I see is the "SMP" statement.  As I don't have an Apple currently, I can't test it myself.

I'm currently building a new minimal-CD with SMP switched off in the Apple-kernel (that's one difference).  Although it looks to me like a general kernel bug.

CDs updated.  Please download and test ASAP.  TIA!

Tested minimal and universal CD with loading modules i2c-voodoo3, pcilynx and hfsplus.
Everything working fine now, thanks!

Great!  Thanks for testing.

Unfortunately SMP is not supported in this release now.

Works for me too on my blue&white. 
Apologies for the late response. Had a busy week.
Any idea what caused it btw? It sort of looked like the set of modules didn't match the kernel.

Let's close this as "WORKSFORME".
