Title: RE: [EUG-LUG:3480] Re: Help with loading modules

No such animal. It appears that Redhat has moved most of the stuff that was in the rc.modules to rc.sysinit, but I cannot find the section that deals with loading the scsi driver.

Garl,
        So... youve edited your /etc/modules.conf to reflect the change, do you need
to edit your /etc/rc.d/rc.modules to load the correct modules?
/etc/modules.conf is only configurations for all your modules, the actual
loading of modules happens in /etc/rc.d/rc.modules.

: Help. Well I just had a scsi card die in one of my linux servers. After

: works. I can mount the drives, copy files, etc. but no matter what I do,
: it refuses to load at boot.

: Originally I had a Buslogic  BT-946C in the machine and my
: /etc/modules.conf file looked like this:
:
: alias scsi_hostadapter BusLogic
: alias eth0 3c59x
: alias parport_lowlevel parport_pc

: After installing the replacement card, a NCR 53c825, I modified the
: /etc/modules.conf file to this:
:
: alias scsi_hostadapter ncr53c8xx
: alias eth0 3c59x
: alias parport_lowlevel parport_pc
:
: The problem is I keep getting this message:
:
: kmod: failed to exec /sbin/modprobe -s -k scsi_hostadapter, errno = 2

: At this point the boot process halts (as it can't mount three disks) and

: I can mount the missing disks and then switch to init 3 and everything
: works. What am I missing?!?
