The depmod weirdness is a bug in the initscripts. If the hardware (BIOS) clock is set to local time (e.g. if you dual-boot a well-known OS) then files created before /etc/rcS/S55hwclock.sh runs have an incorrect timestamp. I had good luck renaming the symlink to S20hwclock.sh but YMMV. If you're not dual-booting you may want to look at the manpage for hwclock and /etc/default/rcS. John
