I just upgraded my Kernel version from 2.6.17 to 2.6.18. Although I didn't installed the default kernel from debian repo (2.6.18-4-686). I re-compiled the kernel taking the existing .config file from 2.6.17 and then made few changes. I compiled the kernel debian way.
Now, during the boot with this new kernel I get these messages 7-8 times right in the beginning of the boot process:
modprobe: FATAL : could not load /lib/modules/2.6.18-gc1/modules.dep NO such file or directory
After that, the system boots fine and everything works normally.
Also, during this upgrade from 2.6.17 to 2.6.18 I also upgrade my debian system from Debian Sarge to Debian Etch.
I did some research and someone said that it is a bug in the make-kpkg package? I am not sure what to do next? Can I get rid of those messages or those messages are just normal and I should not worry about them.
Thanks

no lib/modules/***
Easy: just look at the /lib/modules/ in your virtual machine; compare with uname -a
Certainly, the 2.6.xxx directory corresponding to your runing kernel is nor here.
rsync it from the Dom0 and reboot the virtual machine...

The directory corresponding
The directory corresponding to my running kernel is there in /lib/modules/....
The error message complains about modules.dep no there as I mentioned in my earlier post....
Also, I am confused when you mentioned about virtual machine. what are you referring to with that?
Thanks for your reply.
