Hi all,

I have got a driver module to be loaded on my uClinux board.These many days i used to copy those files to my board through ftp.And then say "insmod driver.ko" in the board.

I wanted to get rid of this and so i copied my driver modules to the path /root/'path to my uClinux dist'/vendors/Analog Devices/MyBoard folder.

I also edited the rc file in this folder like "insmod driver.ko"

I also added a line in Makefile : $(ROMFSINST) /home/bfin/sys_soft/driver.ko

I recompiled my kernel.

While trying to insert driver.ko while booting, it comes out with an error like : module has no symbols.

When i checked, the actual file size of my driver is 65kB but on the board after booting, when i checked in the path /home/bfin/sys_soft, the file size of my driver.ko is only 8kB.

Someone please help me in getting rid of this issue.

Regards,

Prathika

ROMFSINST will automatically strip all files. run `./tools/romfs-inst.sh` for usage help.
