Spurious message at boot: "cannot find modules.dep"

[Ulrich Lukas]

Binary package hint: kernel-package

Similar to http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12000:

Latest working kernel version: 2.6.27.5
Earliest failing kernel version: 2.6.28-rc1
Distribution: Kubuntu 8.04
Software Environment: AMD64

Description:
At boot, just after the "system loading" message, I have the following message:

"modprobe: FATAL: could not load /lib/modules/2.6.28-rc4-k8-1/modules.dep: no such file or directory"

After that, the system boots and works normally.

Steps to reproduce: Install 2.6.28-rc7, boot the system.

I installed the kernel via:
cd /usr/src
sudo make-kpkg clean
sudo make-kpkg --initrd --revision=5:20custom kernel_image
cd ..
dpkg -i linux-image-2.6.28-rc7[...].deb

The modules.dep is there, also the initrd.
Steps to reproduce: boot the system
