This takes just 10-15sec, but makes hardware/software upgrade much easier (esp. for systems with NICs which drivers aren't included in moddb.lrp). In any case you can remove modules.sqfs and get old behavior (except hwdetect - it currently uses modules.sqfs but I can add support for legacy behavior if sqfs is missed).
Modules from /etc/modules are copied with dependencies to /lib/modules (and then - loaded as earlier). > - documentation of the boot process annd how to add modules etc should be > written for the wiki. > I can help to make it into the wiki, but some more insights about using sqfs > would be better given by Andrew or you. > > - will you be able to add your update stuff in time? > > > regards kp > > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > _______________________________________________ > leaf-devel mailing list > leaf-devel@lists.sourceforge.net > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-devel ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ leaf-devel mailing list leaf-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-devel
