I've to load the modules with GRUB and I haven't found the "main" and "l4exec" ones.
main means fiasco and l4exec is gone, it's not used any more.
I've followed all the steps and suggestions you'd give me and the compiling/building of l4 environment and l4linux produces the vmlinuz compressed image, without encountering any problems.
This is my entry in GRUB (based on this http://www.nabble.com/file/p12056312/l4_kickstart.pdf paper , page 18):
Seems outdated.

PS. The paths are different from mine, because I haven't copied the modules all together; I prefer to work in this way..
That's ok.
Also, the --noirq option for l4io and the --l4io option for dope are also gone. The -nowait option to Fiasco is also gone, there's a -wait option now. -comspeed 115200 and -comport 1 are the default, btw.
PS2. The file linux26.cfg has this content:
task "vmlinuz26" "earlyprintk=yes mem=256M video=l4fb root=/dev/hda2" all_sects_writable allow_cli
Ok. I recommend to remove the allow_cli.
