openSUSE 11.3 on one box and openSUSE 11.4 Milestone 4 on the other.
I have a message that says the built modules not found. When I check 
e.g /lib/modules/2.7.37-rc3-git7-smp, most modules are zero bytes long.
I have to "make modules_install" and use modprobe on each.
To get the network up on the 11.3 box "modprobe r6189" then "rcnetwork 
restart", "modprobe rtl8187", "/etc/init.d/network-remotefs start", 
etc., etc.
Then ifconfig is OK for those devices.

Confused, shouldn't we always run 'make modules_install'?
What did you do before that?

Hmm, nothing is wrong with this script.

Sounds like a regression, but I don't recall we have any 'module_install'
changes recently.

What does 'make V=2 modules_install' output?

Thanks.

OK. I built 2.6.37-rc3-git7-smp on the second box, checked the modules 
were OK. Rebooted and modules were still OK, built the NVidia module, 
rebooted and it's OK.
I didn't build VirtualBox-3.2-3.2.10_66523 modules this time to 
eliminate that as the problem previously appeared after I had rebuilt 
VBox as the last action before rebooting straight into X.

I'm now building 2.6.37-rc4-git1 and I shall repeat that sequence again.
Regards
Sid.

This problem has showed up again in 2.6.38-rc6-git5 and openSUSE 11.4 
RC1. The previous kernel 2.6.38-rc6-git2 was OK.
The modules are OK before a reboot, after a reboot all modules are zero 
bytes long. I'm building 2.6.38-rc6-git6 to see if that suffers the same 
problem, e.g.

The problem occurs on the systems with root on xfs, the boxes with ext4 
have not been affected.
On the 2 affected boxes, 2.6.36-rc6-git6 - one had no problems and and 
one several rebuilds and reinstalls of modules had to be done to get it 
to work with the exception of one module.

Listing the module it says 0 bytes whereas before the reboot it was OK.
