Dear john,

I have found out why my computer hangs.
I am missing a file in my /lib/modules/2.4.5
directory called modules.dep

What went wrong with my installation process?

Greetings wouter pos.

How did you find out, I'm intrigued , seems a new problem to me.

I certainly have a file ,
:/mnt/ext2-vol3/lib/modules/2.4.19-16mdk/modules.dep

seems likely you ought to have one,

and this is a flavour of the content,
