I am replying myself, because I have more infos:
My /etc/modules looks like this:
# /etc/modules: kernel modules to load at boot time.
#
# This file should contain the names of kernel modules that are
# to be loaded at boot time, one per line. Comments begin with
# a #, and everything on the line after them are ignored.
binfmt_aout
binfmt_misc
nfs
nfsd
smbfs
vfat
pcnet32
ppp
sg
The described problem still occurs. (At boot, I get errors about
modprobe not finding the above modules)
The thing is that my .config in the kernel source tree only has one item
modulized:
# grep =m .config
CONFIG_DUMMY=m
1) So, should I simply comment out what's in /etc/modules? Is this the
*proper* way of doing this?
2) Where do these values in /etc/modules come from? I suppose they're
from the original kernel installed...? (2.2.15 that is for me)
I'd be glad about any replies.
TIA
Sven
