[opensuse] opensuse way to do modprobe at boot?
All, I rebooted a server yesterday and my backup failed last night because it depended on having the fuse module loaded by the kernel. (I guess this is the first reboot in a few months.) Anyway, I know the file /etc/modprobe.conf exists and is used at boot to load modules, but is there a opensuse preferred way to modify it? (ie. A tool like yast?) If not, I don't see a line in there related to fuse, so what should the line say, and where should I put it? FYI: So far I have just been manually calling "modprobe fuse".

Thanks Dinar, but you should be sleeping if your in Russia :) I know real programmers never sleep. I'm way too old for that. On 6/5/07, Dinar Valeev <dinarv@gmail.com> wrote:

Probably not the best way, but I think you could do this: echo "modprobe fuse" >> /etc/init.d/boot.local This way the module gets loaded before all other services start. -- David Mayr, http://davey.de openSUSE is my LINUX, http://opensuse.de -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Thanks, I suspected there was a way via yast. Turns out that editing the line Vinar pointed out also caused this entry to be populated, so I assume it is 2 ways to do the same thing.

FYI: So far I have just been manually calling "modprobe fuse". Check your Yast>System>Runlevel Editor. IIRC, there is a boot.fuse startup script. Just enable it via Expert mode.
