Hello,
I am presently porting RTLinux to MIPS Atlas board ( with 4Kc core ).
Can you please tell me how to remove the write protection of the Linux kernel (2.4.3) . Because I am getting the page fault when i am trying to insert the Rtlinux module.

Best Regards & Thanks,
Venkatesh M R

Modules aren't write protected.

I rather doubt that write protection has anything to do with what you are seeing. It is far more likely that you are making the kernel dereference an uninitialized pointer.
