well, here's what I found with load_category('disk/cdrom')
I'm no expert with perl (me Watson, you Holmes ;)
modules.pm line 73:
sub load_category {
my ($category, $wait_message, $probe_type) = @_;
### only $category, and this has disk/cdrom
read_already_loaded();
my @try_modules = (
if_($category =~ /scsi/,
if_(arch() !~ /ppc/, 'imm', 'ppa'),
if_(detect_devices::usbStorage(), 'usb-storage'),
),
if_(arch() =~ /ppc/,
if_($category =~ /scsi/, 'mesh', 'mac53c94'),
if_($category =~ /net/, 'bmac', 'gmac', 'mace'),
if_($category =~ /sound/, 'dmasound_awacs'),
),
); ### none matches, @try_modules empty
grep {
$wait_message->($_->{description}, $_->{driver}) if $wait_message;
eval { load([ $_->{driver}, $_->{options} ]) };
$_->{error} = $@;
!($@ && $_->{try});
} probe_category($category, $probe_type),
### this is empty, see sub probe_category
map {;{driver => $_, description => $_, try => 1}} @try_modules;
### empty (I guess)
}
sub probe_category {
my ($category, $probe_type) = @_;
my @modules = category2modules($category);
### @modules has ide-cd sr_mod cdrom
grep {
if ($category eq 'isdn') {
my $b = $_->{driver} =~ /ISDN:([^,]*),?([^,]*),?(.*)/;
if ($b) {
$_->{driver} = $1;
$_->{options} = $2;
$_->{firmware} = $3;
$_->{firmware} =~ s/firmware=//;
$_->{driver} eq "hisax" and $_->{options} .= " id=HiSax";
}
$b;
} else {
member($_->{driver}, @modules);
### none in @modules is with the stuff below
}
} detect_devices::probeall($probe_type);
### this has five times "unknown" presumably my
### VIA chipset stuff,
### ne2k, es1938, nvidia
}
sub load_ide {
eval { load("ide-cd"); }
}
So, we take disk/cdrom,
that resolves to the three modules ide-cd sr_mod cdrom,
try_modules is empty so we skip that,
detect_devices::proball on my box only returns stuff found on pci,
none of the pci stuff matches our three modules in @modules,
which leads to probe_category returning nothing,
which in turn gives the grep in load_category nothing to work on
is that about correct?
