    Hello,
    
        I'm trying to install BLCR on my machine. I ran configure, make and 
    make install, the libs and modules were created and put in the
    usr/local dir, but when I try to install the vmadump and blcr modules, 
    some errors occurr, being all of them like this:
    
    > /usr/local/lib/blcr/2.4.26/vmadump_blcr.o: 
    > /usr/local/lib/blcr/2.4.26/vmadump_blcr.o: unresolved symbol 
    > __d_path_R0e2ea584
    
        So, what could be wrong? Did I try to use a wrong version of the 
    kernel sources? I suppose the problem lies on the kernel sources
    I'm using because when I run configure, I get this warning:

    >   Kernel source directory = /usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.26
    >   Kernel build directory = /usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.26
    >   Kernel symbol table = /boot/System.map-2.4.26-1-386
    >   Kernel version probed from kernel build = 2.4.26
    >   Kernel running currently = 2.4.26-1-386
    > ======================================================================
    
        But when I asked the system admin if the versions where different, 
    he said that the "-1-386" is just a kind of label and that the
    versions are the same. Could you help me with this?
    
    Thanks in advance for your help,
    Paolo Victor
