You guys are sorda missing the point of 'moveold' ....
You want to build it with '--prefix=/' so that
both depmod and depmod.old are in /sbin ....
----------------------
workshop root # ls /sbin/depmod* -l
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 58744 Aug 4 17:19 /sbin/depmod
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 58712 Aug 4 13:57 /sbin/depmod.old
workshop root # ls /sbin/modprobe* -l
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 6 Aug 4 17:19 /sbin/modprobe
-> insmod
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Aug 4 13:57
/sbin/modprobe.old -> insmod.old
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Aug 4 17:19
/sbin/modprobe.static -> insmod.static
workshop root #
------------------
Any call will then thus run depmod/whatever from module-init-tools
first, and if the kernel is 2.4, etc, it will call
depmod.old/whatever ...
