Hi Ulrich,

Thanks your suggestion gets rid of the annoying references to not being able to find the modules. However it still doesn't allow the machine to come up in runlevel 3 which is what I want. There are also some errors at the start about not being about to create /dev/mapper/control, although it seems to exist already with the correct permissions.

The errors look as follows:

Activating device mapper...
FATAL: Module dm_mod not found.
device-mapper kernel module not loaded: can't create /dev/mapper/control.
                                                                    failed
showconsole: Warning: the ioctl TIOCGDEV is not known by the kernel

I couldn't find any easy solution.

Eamonn,

I guess the file actually does not exist. I think there's a "depmod" command totally unrelated to XEN...

Have you ever tried "man -k modules.dep"?:
depmod (8)           - program to generate modules.dep and map files.
modules.dep (5)      - List of module dependencies

Regards,
Ulrich
