While recompiling the kernel when I did
#make modules It gives me the following error at the end
make[2]: *** [dummy.o] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory '/usr/src/linux-2.4.2/drivers/net' make[1]: *** [_modsubdir_net] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory '/usr/src/linux-2.4.2/drivers' make: *** [_mod_drivers] Error 2
and exits. what might be the problem?
Thanx in Advance.

The error might come from the C compiler. Try to build the dummy module with gcc, something like (lenght of lines adjusted):
gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux-2.4.10/include -Wall \ -Wstrict-prototypes -Wno-trigraphs -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer \ -fno-strict-aliasing -fno-common -pipe -mpreferred-stack-boundary=2 \ -march=i686 -DMODULE -c -o dummy.o dummy.c
from /usr/src/linux and see what errors you get.
