Which is harmless. Really. You didn't install modules, there's no need for modprobe to work well. If you install modules, that goes away. > Because of /lib/modules/2.4.18-37um/ exists, I move it: > mv /lib/modules/2.4.18-37um/ /lib/modules/2.4.26-3um It's a totally wrong thing to do. Try it on your host, and see things burn out if you want. Modules are almost _never_ compatible between two different kernel releases, especially so much different. > Note: I need not to load modules in um but I don't want to see this error. Hmm, that error is harmless. Really. However: Or otherwise create an empty /lib/modules/2.4.26-3um/ (and possibly even the kernel/ subdirectory), and try running depmod -a again - it should probably create an empty dependency listing and fix the warning. Or simply remove the "depmod -a" or "modprobe whatever" lines in the init scripts (not a great idea, though). -- Inform me of my mistakes, so I can keep imitating Homer Simpson's "Doh!".
