Making ext2 as a module in 2.4.18-pre4 seems to be broken.

depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in
/lib/modules/2.4.18-pre4/kernel/fs/ext2/ext2.o
depmod: waitfor_one_page

is this true or just something patching seems to have messed up over the versions?

Add "EXPORT_SYMBOL(waitfor_one_page);" to linux/kernel/ksyms.c (without the quotes).

Read the archive. Just a bug, you need to export that variable from kernel/ksyms.c.

Later, Juan.
