I successfully installed new kernel but as new kernel is going to
boot, I receive this error:
FATAL:could not load /lib/modules/2.6.32.43kerneltest/modules.dep : No
such file or directory

I checked /lib/modules/2.6.32.43kerneltest directory, and modules.dep
exists! Any guidance how can I solve the problem?
as you specifically used make-kpkg (in another mail), I assume you are
running on Debian or a derived distribution (like Ubuntu).

In this case,

# update-initramfs -k 2.6.32.43kerneltest -c

should generate the requirered initrd, and

# update-grub

should make it known to grub.


AFAIR, it is a known limitation/problem of make-kpkg that the initrd is
not automatically built when you install a kernel compiled with that.
AFAIK, make-kpkg is not the official way to generate kernel packages
(at least, not anymore).

HTH,
Spiro.
