1.1 Beta install problem: depmod not found
During a fresh install of 1.1 beta, I had the following problem while
trying to 'Install the Operating System Kernel':
Installing the kernel...
4047 blocks
depmod: not found
I worked around this by switching to vt2 and executing
ln -s /target/sbin/depmod /sbin/depmod
I then tried again to 'Install the Operating System Kernel' and got
Installing the kernel...
4047 blocks
Can't open /lib/modules/1.3.95/modules.dep
I worked around this by switching to vt2 and executing
ln -s /target/lib/modules /lib/modules
This step then proceeded to build a bootable kernel. Perhaps the root
floppy could handle this automatically?
Apologies if this is well-known (I did search the archives), or if I did
something particularly stupid to trigger this problem.
