In the book, we currently have the text "Install the modules, if the kernel

-r)/modules.{builtin,dep,order,*}. This sentence should be changed, but I'm at a loss for 
the moment. Suggestions?

Not clear, from the discussion so far, if the

modules.{builtin,dep,order,*}.

files need to be created for a SysV kernel that was built without any modules,
although  DJ's suggestion is that "things fail" for the SysD revision.

I'm sorry, I should clarify. I was under the mistaken impression that firewalld only ran under systemd, this is not the case (it doesn't even require elogind on SysV). Although there is an issue with the conntrack helpers if the modules are builtins (for which I also intend to use the modules.builtin file to fix this problem upstream as was already done in the earlier bug that I pointed to). But, yes, this is on SysV and systemd. I'm building a no loadable modules kernel now.
