[Libguestfs] [PATCH] appliance: Run depmod to create modules.dep for the kernel.

[Richard W.M. Jones]

Turns out the normal (non-supermin) appliance has been broken for a
little while, because modules.dep was no longer being built.

With this fix in the appliance (applied to a Fedora machine), I am now
able to get as far on Mac OS X as booting the appliance and
establishing a network connection with the daemon.

Rich.

Subject: [PATCH] appliance: Run depmod to create modules.dep for the kernel.

Since we disabled running new-kernel-pkg in febootstrap, this
has meant that the normal appliance has not had a modules.dep
file.  (Supermin was unaffected by this).
