and the deps they pulled. Then I did in kernel-default, which failed to create initrd due to inability to find modules.dep for 2.6.38. At the time I didn't recognize what that meant, but since found that was what should have been installed as /lib/modules/2.6.38-4-default/modules.dep.
The question is, by what process is modules.dep created? Is it supposed to be a part of the kernel rpm, or is it generated by calling depmod from the rpm installation script, or something else?
Yes, depmod should create that. It should not be in a kernel rpm. The rpm only owns it (to uninstall it).
It would no longer boot off either old kernel or new kernel, so I opened it via chroot to actually do the dup, which managed to install 2.6.38-4-pae with a modules.dep file.
Did I catch a bad break by getting a broken 2.6.38-4-default rpm
