I am having a problem with the depmod utility.

I am trying to build modules for the 2.6.2 kernel, using a machine
running a 2.4 kernel

I am using customized paths and I want to achieve the following:

My modules are located in:

/u1/build/kmodules/

I want depmod to create a modules.dep file at the following location:

/u1/build/kmodules/modules.dep

it is trying to write to the following location, which is not what I
want:

/u1/build/kmodules/lib/modules/2.6.0/modules.dep

It has appended a /lib/modules/2.6.0 to my customized path name.

I want to modify the behaviour not to do this and I require the latest
source code.

Where do I obtain this ?

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help.
