Subject: Upgrading to un-debianized kernel

I recently upgraded to the 2.0.17 kernel, although this problem occured with
other non-debian kernels.
I now get, on boot, and in my daemon log when use diald and pppd,
Can't locate module net-pf-4
  ""        ""        ""  -5

The problem is not terminal, but it does bug me. I thought the problem
might be the psdatabase, but running psupdate does not fix it.

Anyone know whats wrong??

Thanx... :-)

Or set up your /etc/conf.modules:

	#alias eth0 <enter your driver here>
	#alias <whatever you don't have that kerneld complains about> off
	alias net-pf-4 off
	alias net-pf-5 off

You have to add

alias net-pf-4 off      # if you don't use the ipx module
alias net-pf-5 off      # if you don't use the appletalk module

to /etc/conf.modules.
