There is usage of lsmod and modprobe and those are "root" binaries. I suspect they were trying to ensure the right path to the root binaries could be found. This was then copied for other utilities like grep. Modern distros should have PATH set correctly for users to be able to find binaries. This was an issue on weird non-linux platforms but Linux should have been ok even then, certainly now. I'd think it could all be simplified." I suspect that lsmod and modprobe are only relevant to RTAI builds, and I doubt that the Yocto build would ever use RTAI. -- atp "A motorcycle is a bicycle with a pandemonium attachment and is designed for the especial use of mechanical geniuses, daredevils and lunatics." — George Fitch, Atlanta Constitution Newspaper, 1912 _______________________________________________ Emc-developers mailing list Emc-developers@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-developers
