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

use them, whether they are built-in or not, and this step is
required to populate /lib/modules/$(uname
-r)/modules.{builtin,dep,order,*}.
I was not entirely correct above.
So, this is not the case for CONFIG_MODULES=n.
The present kernel configuration has modules disabled.
Type 'make config' and enable loadable module support.
Then build a kernel with module support enabled.
I guess the existing works, but this is more clear regarding the
configuration: "If you've enabled loadable modules support in the
kernel..." Note that this is different than building without any config
items selected as a module (M).
Thoughts?
