[SOLVED] Kernel 2.6.32 tries to load 2.6.31 modules

After upgrading the kernel and firmware [also the kernel26 headers] , when I boot errors are now spat out along the lines of : "modprobe Fatal /lib/modules/ARCH2.6.31 does not exist" and there are no wifi, keyboard, usb etc modules loaded.

So why is it still looking for the old folder? ARCH2.6.32 exists in it's place. Googled to no effect, can anyone help? Something needs to be pointed at the new path but I don't know what. First time a kernel update has ever given me any trouble.


Cheers

Re: [SOLVED] Kernel 2.6.32 tries to load 2.6.31 modules

and you're absolutely _sure_ that the image you are loading is infact the 2.6.32-kernel?
At one point (in a previous life) I had a boot-partition (read-only) where I copied from /boot (which was on the root filesystem) after a kernel upgrade (silly, I know - these days I chainload instead). If I forgot to copy the new kernel/initrd, then I would still boot my old one but the modules (obviously) were nowhere to be found ....

Thanks perbh, that's it. This must be the first kernel upgrade since I reinstalled with a seperate /boot [don't ask me why I did]. Completely forgot about it like.:/

Thanks again!
