Good question. On Mageia and Fedora (at least originally, not sure if it's changed recently), the modules are in: /lib/modules/<kernel-version>/ tree. These days this should of course be: /usr/lib/modules/<kernel-version>/ The actual modules are stored in a: /lib/modules/<kernel-version>/kernel/ subfolder. If there are no compelling reasons to pick otherwise, we could use: /usr/lib/kernel/<kernel-version>/ tree. Inside there would be a: /usr/lib/kernel/<kernel-version>/modules/ folder containing the actual modules (same as /lib/modules/<kernel-version>/kernel/) For compatibility, the /lib/modules/<kernel-version> could be symlinked to /usr/lib/kernel/<kernel-version> and a simple "modules -> kernel" symlink shipped inside the /usr/lib/kernel/<kernel-version>/ folder. All old paths would work in that case. The kernel itself could then simply be: /usr/lib/kernel/<kernel-version>/vmlinuz Not sure if this is just completely made up in my head or if this is how others have envisioned it also. I don't think any of the spec documents talked about the actual filesystem layout of the actual kernel files/modules.
