The RAM block module is called 'brd' ever since commit
9db5579be4bb5320c3248f6acf807aedf05ae143 ("rewrite rd"). Update its
Kconfig entry accordingly.Signed-off-by: Paul Bolle <[email protected]> --- 0) Of course this driver does have an 'rd' alias, see commit efedf51c866130945b5db755cb58670e60205d83 ("Add 'rd' alias to new brd ramdisk driver"). But its name is 'brd'. 1) "modprobe rd" doesn't work anymore under Fedora 16, because of dracut: brd: Unknown parameter `md' See man 7 dracut.cmdline for all cmdline parameters that can trigger this error. 2) "modinfo rd" doesn't work. Apparently one needs to feed modinfo the actual module name and not an alias.
