I had to create the directory in question by hand, and then run it again, at
which point it worked.
Am I the only person this is happening for? (Bog standard Red Hat 9 system
otherwise. With Rusty's modutils...)
I didn't see that here with Red Hat 9 system and 2.6.0-test3.
Maybe you can greb the used scripts to see which one does make (or test
the existence of) the directory.
I now use the modutils package from rawhide. It also handles the
creation of the new /etc/modprobe.conf file.
