commit914b087ff9upstream. When $DEPMOD is not found, only print a warning instead of exiting with an error message and error status: Warning: 'make modules_install' requires /sbin/depmod. Please install it. This is probably in the kmod package. Change the Error to a Warning because "not all build hosts for cross compiling Linux are Linux systems and are able to provide a working port of depmod, especially at the file patch /sbin/depmod." I.e., "make modules_install" may be used to copy/install the loadable modules files to a target directory on a build system and then transferred to an embedded device where /sbin/depmod is run instead of it being run on the build system.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
