I ran into the same thing on both the 2008.0-beta-r2 livedvd and livecd.  Since modules.dep isn't present, none of the scanned for modules load.

I'm not criticizing here:  I am curious how this version could be released with this error.  It's failed the same way on 4 different machines, so I imagine it has to fail for everyone.  

Seems this should be elevated to critical.

This should be fixed in 2008.0, which is now released.
