Hi 

As anyone here previously encountered a "segmentation fault" on depmod
when trying to install modules?

I'm building a 2.6.13, with Alex Zeffertt PQ2 Sar driver + atm modules,
and I've got a nice crash (see following)

make[1]: `arch/ppc/kernel/asm-offsets.s' is up to date.
  Building modules, stage 2.
  MODPOST
  CC      net/atm/atm.mod.o
  CC      net/atm/br2684.mod.o
  CC      net/atm/clip.mod.o
  LD [M]  net/atm/atm.ko
  LD [M]  net/atm/clip.ko
  LD [M]  net/atm/br2684.ko

make modules_install INSTALL_MOD_PATH=/home/xxx/Atm/
  INSTALL net/atm/atm.ko
  INSTALL net/atm/br2684.ko
  INSTALL net/atm/clip.ko
if [ -r System.map -a -x /sbin/depmod ]; then /sbin/depmod -ae -F
System.map -b /home/xxx/Atm/ -r 2.6.13; fi
/bin/sh: line 1:  8902 Segmentation fault      /sbin/depmod -ae -F
System.map -b /home/xxx/Atm/ -r 2.6.13
make: *** [_modinst_post] Error 139


With  depmod -V => module-init-tools 3.1-pre5


Fabien.
