I've traced it to the following lines in /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit. should i
comment it out? is it safe to comment it out? man modprobe and man depmod
don't help much.
if [ -x /sbin/depmod -a -n "$USEMODULES" ]; then
# Get ready for kerneld if module support in the kernel
echo -n "Finding module dependencies... "
if [ -e /lib/modules/preferred ]; then
depmod -a preferred
else
depmod -a
fi
echo "done"
fi
