-Description:  The kernel version running is the same as the one being installed
- You are attempting to install a kernel version that is the same as
- the version you are currently running (version ${running}). The modules
- list is quite likely to have been changed, and the modules dependency
- file ${modules_base}/=V/modules.dep needs to be re-built. It can
- not be built correctly right now, since the module list for the
- running kernel are likely to be different from the kernel installed.
- I am creating a new modules.dep file, but that may not be
- correct. It shall be regenerated correctly at next reboot.
- .
- I repeat: you have to reboot in order for the modules file to be
- created correctly. Until you reboot, it may be impossible to load
- some modules. Reboot as soon as this install is finished (Do not
- reboot right now, since you may not be able to boot back up until
- installation is over, but boot immediately after). I can not stress
- that too much. You need to reboot soon.
