Thanks, I did that. But I was referring to the following
section.

Setting up linux-image-2.6.12-10-386 (2.6.12-10.25) ...
There was a problem running depmod. This may be benign,
(You may have versioned symbol names, for instance).
Or this could be an error.
depmod exited with return value 0
depmod got a signal 7
Since this image uses initrd, I am not deleting the file
/lib/modules/2.6.12-10-386/modules.dep. However, there is no
guarantee that the file is valid. I would strongly advice
you to either abort and fix the errors in depmod, or
regenerate the initrd image with a known good modules.dep
file. I repeat, an initrd kernel image with a bad modules.dep
shall fail to boot.
Would you like to abort now? [No]

Hopefully everythings ok, but the cpio read errors concern me.
