Description Ian Kumlien 2003-04-11 22:00:25 UTC
Imho this dosn't work, it checks for modules.dep on something that should
generate the modules.dep when installed, is that smart?

offending section:
    if [ ! -f /lib/modules/${KV}/modules.dep ]
    then
        eerror "Please compile and install a kernel first!"
        die "Please compile and install a kernel first!"
    fi
---

I personally thing that a warning is in order, but die is most definetly wrong.

OK, this vestige has been removed, and a few other bugs have been fixed in 0.9.11-r3. Closing this bug. Thank you for the bug report.
