Same here! It's crucial for module loading.

Modules_install? More like modules_lost, am I right? Don't worry, we've all been there.

Modules_install, the forgotten step in the kernel installation dance. Classic rookie mistake!

The modules_install target is definitely the one you missed. How else are you supposed to load those modules?

Yeah, I think `make modules_install` is the right answer, but I also remember something about updating the initramfs. Not sure if that's relevant here.

I definitely recall `make modules_install` being crucial, but I wonder if there are other steps that could affect module loading too.

I'm not entirely sure, but I feel like there was a similar question about kernel modules in our practice exam. Could it be related to `make install` instead?

I think it might be the `make modules_install` target that was missed. I remember reading about it in the kernel installation guide.

Aha, I see where the issue might be now. If I skip the 'modules_install' step, the kernel won't be able to find the necessary modules. Good catch on this question - I'll make a note of that for the exam.

Easy peasy! The 'make modules_install' target is crucial to get the compiled kernel modules installed properly. Forgetting that step is a common pitfall, so I'll be sure to double-check it.

I'm a bit confused on this one. What exactly is the 'modules_install' target and why is it important for finding kernel modules? I'll have to review that part of the process.

Hmm, this one seems tricky. I'd start by checking if I ran the 'make modules_install' target after compiling the kernel. That's probably the key step I might have missed.
