Although I had up-to-date modules in /boot/kernel, I still had stale modules in /modules. The bottom line? Be sure to remove your /modules when you upgrade. If you want to keep your old modules around to support an old kernel, do this: if [ ! -d /boot/kernel.old ]; then mv /modules /boot/kernel.old chflags noschg /kernel mv /kernel /boot/kernel.old/kernel.ko chflags noschg /boot/kernel.old/kernel.ko fi The linuxulator is working just fine for me under the new SMPng. :-) Ciao, Sheldon.
