Question Code Listing 5.1: Viewing all available modules


I'm trying to see what modules should be configured to load with the new kernel and the Handbook gives this
Code:
# find /lib/modules/<kernel version>/ -type f -iname '*.o' -or -iname '*.ko' | less
mine
Code:
find /lib/modules/kernel-genkernel-x86_64-3.2.12-gentoo/ -type f -iname '*.o' -or -iname '*.ko' | less
gives output
Code:
find: `/lib/modules/kernel-genkernel-x86_64-3.2.12-gentoo/': No such file or directory | less
What could be causing this and how to I track it down?
Is there a number of defaults that should still let the system boot and load, should I by-pass this and keep moving forward?

This is the message given after the kernel compiled and I'm using ext4 on my partitions
Code:
Kernel compiled successfully!
* 
* Required Kernel Parameters:
*     real_root=/dev/$ROOT
* 
*     Where $ROOT is the device node for your root partition as the
*     one specified in /etc/fstab
* 
* If you require Genkernel's hardware detection features; you MUST
* tell your bootloader to use the provided INITRAMFS file. Otherwise;
* substitute the root argument for the real_root argument if you are
* not planning to use the initramfs...

* WARNING... WARNING... WARNING...
* Additional kernel cmdline arguments that *may* be required to boot properly...
* With support for several ext* filesystems around it may be needed to
* add "rootfstype=ext3" or "rootfstype=ext4"

* Do NOT report kernel bugs as genkernel bugs unless your bug
* is about the default genkernel configuration...
* 
* Make sure you have the latest ~arch genkernel before reporting bugs.
