Hi all, I've recently installed the kraxel kernel-default-26-2.6.1-0.i586.rpm and when I boot using 2.6.1, I get many messages like: request_module: failed /sbin/modprobe -- block-major-129-225. error = 256 ... request_module: failed /sbin/modprobe -- block-major-8-255. error = 256 and booting takes about 15 minutes. This does not happen with 2.4 kernel. The major numbers seem to correspond to every SCSI major device number. I have an Adaptec 2930 PCI SCSI card installed in my PC, but no SCSI devices currently atached to it. My /etc/modules.conf (for 2.4 kernel) says: alias scsi_hostadapter off ... alias block-major-8 sd_mod My /etc/modprobe.conf says: alias block-major-8 sd_mod ... install scsi_hostadapter /bin/true Do I need to fix my modprobe.conf? If so, exactly how? Or is there something wrong with the 2.6.1 kernel? Do I need to compile the kernel myself rather than use the default rpm? If so, what do I need to change in the configuration? Or is it maybe something else, like a bug in modprobe or hotplug? I have modutils-2.4.25-78, hotplug-2002_08_26-22 and hotplug-beta-2003.11.11-6 Best regards
