[Libguestfs] [PATCH] appliance: Run depmod to create modules.dep for the kernel.
Turns out the normal (non-supermin) appliance has been broken for a little while, because modules.dep was no longer being built. With this fix in the appliance (applied to a Fedora machine), I am now able to get as far on Mac OS X as booting the appliance and establishing a network connection with the daemon.

Since we disabled running new-kernel-pkg in febootstrap, this has meant that the normal appliance has not had a modules.dep file. (Supermin was unaffected by this). --- appliance/make.sh.in | 5 +++++ 1 files changed, 5 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) diff --git a/appliance/make.sh.in b/appliance/make.sh.in index 9aa1e68..ab95da8 100755 --- a/appliance/make.sh.in +++ b/appliance/make.sh.in @@ -41,6 +41,11 @@ if [ "@DIST@" = "REDHAT" ]; then @FEBOOTSTRAP@ $packages -u @UPDATES@ @REPO@ initramfs @MIRROR@ + # Create modules.dep.
