Hi Anthony,
while browsing through the Deja.com usenet forums
( http://www.deja.com/usenet/ ) I found, that quite a lot
of people have similar problem after building modules
or even the kernel on RedHat 6.2.
Simply search for best_memcpy and you will get about
50 hits. Here are some answer on the question what to do
when the unresolved message occurs.
Answer 1:
>Here is how I compile a new Kernel:
>
> make xconfig
> make dep
> make bzImage
> make modules
> make modules_install
> edit lilo.conf with you favorite editor
> make install
>
>The last 'make install' does all the copying of needed files, and it even
>runs 'lilo' for you.
Answer 2:
> I was having problems building a 3rd Party driver under RedHat Linux 6.2.
> The driver includes "linux/string.h". The process always yielded
> unresolved symbol errors (best_memset, best_memmove, etc.).

It seems to me, that a proper build/install cycle will help. Maybe you'll
find another way.
Hope this helps
