Package: hotplug Version: 0.0.20040329-16 Severity: normal I had a problem installing a IEEE1394 PCI controller on a debian sarge system. After some testing and internet research I found out that I need the parameter attempt_root=1 for the used camera to work with Linux. I then added this parameter into the modules configuration and tested it with modprobe (it worked).
After a reboot of the system I realized that the automatic loading of modules during boot (I assume that was the hotplug start script) loaded the driver without my parameters which resulted in a non-working system. I had to manually unload and reload the drivers after that using a custom script. There has to be a method to provide module init parameters for automatically loaded modules in order to prevent such problems. Please tell me if there exists such a method or if this has nothing to do with the hotplug-scripts.
