Therrte's a couple of steps - enabling loadable module support in the 
kernel configuration (make menuconfig -> kernel settings).  I think I've 
turned it on before and had no compiler errors.

The second part is insmod, lsmod, depmod and friends.  They exist in 
busybox, but I do remember turning them on and getting error messages 
saying "unsupported architecture".  So, it will be necessary to add 
microblaze support for the loadable module user apps in busybox.  I 
suspect there won't be a great deal to it, but I've never looked so I'm 
only guessing.

Try enabling the kernel support for loadable modules first, see how that 
goes, then look at busybox.   Keep me informed with your progress, I 
don't think it should be too hard.

Cheers,

John
