Kernel 3.18RC3

[Doug S]

I got an error trying to install the Ubuntu kernel 3.18RC3 just now:

modprobe: ERROR: ../libkmod/libkmod.c:556 kmod_search_moddep() could not open moddep file '/lib/modules/3.18.0-031800rc2-generic/modules.dep.bin'

I had purged 3.18RC2 first. I'm going to try to build the kernel.org version using the ubuntu config file, as I normally do.

Correction: There is no error. (it helps to not forget and purge the same kernel currently running. Duh!)

Edit: Kernel seems to be working fine.
