Tim You could edit rc.sysinit to comment out if [ -L /lib/modules/default ]; then INITLOG_ARGS= action "Finding module dependencies: " depmod -A default else INITLOG_ARGS= action "Finding module dependencies: " depmod - fi But there is a definit risk in that if there is a module change... things could get real flakey if you haven't manually done a depmod -A on your own before the last shutdown. or if something got kinked there would be no "protection" in place to unkink it. The other point might be that you really need to add something to your modules.conf for depmod to find. Do you know what modules it uses (when running.) James
