Suffering from lack of documentation for the Linux installation
requirements, I am attempting to troubleshoot my FW-1 installation on
Mandrake Linux (Red Hat). The installation appears to be successful, but
fwstart returns the error message:

FireWall-1: Loading kernel module...
fwstart: Loading fw-1 kernel module
FW-1: insmod failed

..So I tried to insmod the fwmod.2.2.x.o module manually and get a slew
of unresolved symbols as well as the error:

mknod: wrong number of arguments
Try `mknod --help' for more information.
chmod: /dev/fw0: No such file or directory
open: No such file or directory

There appears to be a character device called /dev/fw0 that is created
when the module is loaded but this isnt happening and all subsequent
manipulation of this file are crashing. If any of these problems look
familiar, please share the lore

Thanks - I

In examining the module loading process,
