depmod is referring to the kernel version.
You can run it from anywhere, it will look in /lib/modules for the
kernel modules directory.

Example:

# ls /lib/modules
2.6.31.13                              2.6.33.1-24.fc13.x86_64

# depmod -a 2.6.31.13
(no output, sometimes ignorable warnings)

the mkinitrd will also refer to that same kernel version

For example:
mkinitrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.31.13 2.6.31.13

Hope that helps.

Todd
