That's pretty much what my script on https://github.com/wphermans/bbb-cleanup does. When I first wrote this script, for some reason the blacklist method was not working, but the fake install was. Would be very trivial to change the script to do a "proper" blacklist. Question though Robert. debian@beaglebone:~$ sudo depmod -ae /* Ignore warning */ debian@beaglebone:~$ sudo update-initramfs -u /* Changes will take effect next boot */ What do these two tools actually do in the context of modules and initrd images ? I always assumed this had some effect on what is actually loaded from an initrd, but I've never honestly looked into it. . .
