Hi!
I often get this error in syslog: May 27 11:15:21 MAJA modprobe: can't locate module block-major-8 May 27 11:15:31 MAJA last message repeated 15 times
I checked /etc/conf.modules and found out this: alias block-major-8 sd_mod
I haven't got a clue what sd_mod is and what it is used for - so i dont know if I can safely turn the alias off ?
Yes. sd_mod is the module for SCSI disk or non ide zip drive support. Everytime YaST starts up, it causes this message. If you don't have scsi, turn it off. Henning -- H.
