Rémi,
Generally, you should consider the runtime "module path" to be composed
of three elements: the upgrade module path (--upgrade-module-path), the
system modules (--system) and the user module path (--module-path).
Depending on your requirements, you may want to take --patch-module into
account as well. At compile time there is also the source path
(--source-path or --module-source-path) to consider.
While this may seem complicated, it is analagous of the pre-Jigsaw world of
-Xbootclasspath/p: -bootclasspath -Xbootclasspath/a: -classpath
(and -sourcepath at compile time)
