Have you verified that
/lib/modules/2.4.12/kernel/drivers/net/hermes.o
does exist?
Mine is located in:
/lib/modules/2.4.12/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/hermes.o
Are you sure that the same configuration and compiler
was used for the kernel and for the module?
"So I copied the files hermes.o, orinoco.o and orinoco_cs.o from 2.4.2"
obviously not - this is a NO NO, recompile the kernel please...
(It detects and tries to load the module but fails to
load it)
