I don't understand anything you wrote above. Can you elaborate please? The place you quoted from the previous email: >> Unlike the modprobe utility from module-init-tools, busybox' version fails >> for built-in modules: is at least improperly worded, proper wording would be something like "modprobe from busybox complains about built-in modules" - since there's no way to _load_ a module which is already built-in to the kernel. If you have some problem with ext2.ko, please describe it in more details. Thanks, /mjt -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
