They didn't know exactly why module.conf seemed to be completely ignored when the upgrade happened by the kernel dameom.
Which kernel daemon? There are quite a few.
I tried to force kerneld into use though the system setup files, that failed.
If you're so knowledgable as you say, you should have known that kerneld only works for 2.0 kernels.
so maybe you can tell me why the kernel refused to load the aic7xxx drivers and the 3c90x drivers.
You do have alias eth0 3c90x in your /etc/modules.conf and INITRD_MODULES=aic7xxx in /etc/rc.config? And if you have and it still failed, what error messages did you get? I need precise data to give detailed help and no, 'doesn't work' isn't precise.
The RH solution was tied to mkinitrd which wasn't on the system ANYWHERE.
Why should we name such a non standard tool according to what RH chooses? -- Penguins to save the dinosaurs -- Handelsblatt on Linux for S/390
