module dependency calculation on boot

[symbiote]

during system startup, the "Calculating Module Dependencies" returns an failure code (!!).

however, after the system has loaded, when i do a depmod -a, everything is fine. if i do a /etc/init.d/modules restart; the Calculating Module Dependencies no longer gives an error either and returns with an success code, (ok).

anybody know where could this be coming from?

/usr/sbin/update-modules doesn't like overwriting things that it didn't create. Try running "update-modules force" as root once, and see if matters improve afterwards.

hmm, no good. still the same. still fails on boot, but when i run update-modules after startup, i don't get any errors.
