[hcflinux] modversions.h

[John Spray]

Hi Carlos,

modversions.h is a file that's generated during the process of compiling a 
kernel.  If you have the source/configuration that your present kernel was 
compiled with, it's just a case of going to the source directory and running 
"make dep" (which will create a modversions.h along with other things).  If 
you don't have the exact source that your present kernel was compiled with 
(ie you use source from kernel.org), you may find you have to compile 
yourself a fresh kernel just so that the generated modversions.h matches the 
running kernel.

I'm not a debian user, maybe there's some more specific help that can be 
given?
