Im evidently missing something wrt module dependency.

When I reboot my test box, pc87360 is missing a dependency on
(a new, exploratory module) siolock.

Did you (or does your box at boot) run  depmod -a  ??

Its run by make modules_install.
And I see an up-to-date modules.dep, so it is getting run..

-rw-r--r--  1 root root 12121 Jan 17 12:22 modules.dep
/lib/modules/2.6.15-ipipe-103-sk/kernel/drivers/hwmon/pc87360.ko: /lib/modules/2.6.15-ipipe-103-sk/kernel/drivers/hwmon/hwmon-vid.ko /lib/modules/2.6.15-ipipe-103-sk/kernel/drivers/hwmon/siolock.ko /lib/modules/2.6.15-ipipe-103-sk/kernel/drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-isa.ko /lib/modules/2.6.15-ipipe-103-sk/kernel/drivers/i2c/i2c-core.ko

FWIW, this is an NFS-root box, which I think is cause of this :

Not running depmod because /lib/modules/2.6.16-rc1-sk/ is not writeable.
Loading modules...

might it be related to this mount ?
   ( by which I avoid hacking the install-script, on an FC-4 laptop )

192.168.42.1:/lib/modules
                     20158400  15914112   3220288  84% /lib/modules


thanks Jesper
