I promise that I am not going to write a root kit :-). But you gave me
a good start, I will
have to check some of the root kits in order to see how things happen there.

Actually, I want to see similarities between user space way of
linking/loading compared to
kernel space. Have not been able to figure out completely yet at
conceptual level. I have
gone through module.c file and insmod utility.

Any pointers to earlier such attempts would be helpful.
