Correct. The current recursive makefile design means it is difficult to get a definitive list of modules without excessive overhead. So modules_install assumes that you have compiled the modules already and lets the 'cp' command fail. The 2.5 Makefile redesign will get this right.

Broken 2.4 makefile design. http://www.tux.org/lkml/#s8-8 The 2.5 makefile redesign will kill this problem once and for all.
