Hi, As described in the documentation and the config file, I cannot build kernel modules with PAE configured - I get a compile error at type mismatch of a VM item. Is there something special that needs to be done to get them built? What I did: removed NO_MODULES from PAE config file and used make buildkernel KERNCONF=PAE .
