/etc/modules is read in from the /etc/init.d/modutils script. According to the links in my /etc/rcS.d this order is already setup. The /etc/rcS.d scripts are run once per boot before any runlevels are started, see /usr/doc/sysvinit/README.runlevels.gz for more info. % ls -1 /etc/rcS.d/*isapnp /etc/rcS.d/*modutils /etc/rcS.d/*network /etc/rcS.d/S15isapnp /etc/rcS.d/S20modutils /etc/rcS.d/S40network So isapnp is run, then modutils, then network. -- Brian --------------------------------------------------------------------- Mechanical Engineering [EMAIL PROTECTED] Purdue University http://www.ecn.purdue.edu/~servis ---------------------------------------------------------------------
