Ok, here is the exact verbage I get: . . * Mounting local filesystems... [ok] * Activating (possibly) more swap... [ok] * Caching service dependencies... [ok] * Setting system clock to hardware clock [UTC]... [ok] modprobe: Can't open dependencies file /lib/modules/2.4.20-gentoo-r6/modules.dep (No such file or directory) modprobe: Can't open dependencies file /lib/modules/2.4.20-gentoo-r6/modules.dep (No such file or directory) modprobe: Can't open dependencies file /lib/modules/2.4.20-gentoo-r6/modules.dep (No such file or directory) modprobe: Can't open dependencies file /lib/modules/2.4.20-gentoo-r6/modules.dep (No such file or directory) * Configuring kernel parameters... [ok] * Cleaning /var/lock, /var/run... [ok] xargs: environment is too large for exec * Cleaning up /tmp directory... [ok] * Setting user font... [ok] . . The directory "/lib/modules" does not exist on the system and, as I said before, module support is not compiled into the kernel. I would like to clean up the four modprobe errors. Also, I am curious about the "xargs" entry as well. -- Larry Herzog Jr. "Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain VROC #11489 conceit, but in humility consider others [EMAIL PROTECTED] better than yourselves." - Philippians 2:3 -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
