I'm interested in a more generic way to prevent modules from being loaded. We have achieved a long part of the way towards a universal stock kernel image with modules for most setups without the need for manual kernel configuration/compilation. But sometimes I need to prevent modules from being loaded. E.g. for debugging sessions: Checking bug reports / problems without specific subsystems/modules. Even if it would work, a situation where I need to configure this in 3 different places violates the SPOT rule [1]. Thanks for considering. bye, Roland [1] http://www.catb.org/~esr/writings/taoup/html/ch04s02.html#spot_rule
