I built a custom kernel and with a ramdisk attached. I then built a
bootable CD using the RedHat 7.1 CD as a base. I modified the comps file
and loaded all rpms I need to this new CD image. I also added a kickstart
file to the CD image. I use the anaconda and install that comes with the
original RedHat 7.1 CD without modification or rebuilding it.
The CD successfully boots. The installer invokes anaconda and it runs.
The ks.cfg is read. The file systems are formatted (/, /var and swap).
All 126 packages appear to be installed including modutils. Then during
the "Performing post install configuration" I get the following error:
Traceback (innermost last):
File "/usr/bin/anaconda", line 529, in ?

RuntimeError: /sbin/depmod can not be run
> /var/tmp/anaconda-7.1//usr/lib/anaconda/iutil.py(51)execWithRedirect()
-> raise RuntimeError, command + " can not be run"
How can I best determine why /sbin/depmod "can not be run"? What would
cause this? Any hints would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
