If you're having trouble with your modem, it won't help to build a new kernel. The GENERIC kernel supports your modem, so you probably have some other problem.

Can I assume you did this? # config -g PATRICK Don't forget to do a ``make depend'' Kernel build directory is ../../compile/PATRICK # cd ../../compile/PATRICK/ # make If so, I suspect that that's your problem. You wouldn't expect it on a new directory, but you still needed to do a ``make depend'' in order to create the files vnode_if.h and vnode_if.c. If not, it would be interesting to see the last 10 or so lines of your output.
