Making an initrd images with a new module set is giving me several lines 
of unresolved symbols that it is looking for in the /lib/modules/2.2.14-
5.0smp directory.  I renamed the file /usr/src/linux/include/linux/modules 
to ../modules.old and made a new empty directory called modules. I made a 
new directory in /lib/modules and changed the extraversion line in the 
Makefile in /usr/src/linux to put the new modules in the newly created 
directory in /lib/modules.  I ran mkinitrd with the new modules and 
everything boots ok except for the 'depmod' errors from 
the /lib/modules/2.2.14-5.0smp.  I notice that the file modules.dep gets 
written to this directory even once it is removed.  I am curious what is 
going on during boot time that is pointing to that directory even though I 
have booted a kernel with an initrd that excludes that directory.
