Help
The only problem is that I can't work out how to load modules I need at boot time.
I mean in Gentoo it is simply a text file called /etc/iinit.d/kernel_version; in Debian it is etc/modules; in Red Hat it is modules.conf - but in Connectiva there doesn't seem to be anything like that. There is a file in there called modprobe.conf - but this has a format I am not at all familiar with. Here is a snippet of how it is set out:
Code:
alias tty-ldisc-11 irtty alias tty-ldisc-14 ppp_synctty alias ppp-compress-18 ppp_mppe alias ppp-compress-21 bsd_comp alias ppp-compress-24 ppp_deflate alias ppp-compress-26 ppp_deflate alias parport_lowlevel parport_pc alias usbdevfs usbcore alias block-major-109 lvm-mod alias loop0 loop alias /dev/ppp ppp_generic alias ppp ppp_async alias usb uhci-hcd alias usb ehci-hcd alias eth0 8139too
To be honest I don't know what to make of that, or if it is related to debian's /etc/modules or not.
Does anyone here have any clue how the Conectiva folks do it? I would ask them - but unfortunatelly they are Portuguese - so for a non native speaker, its not soo easy.
Any advice anyone can offer would be greatly appreciated.
