Hi!
After upgrading to 2.6.26 I have got a problem with starting hwclock
service - it doesn't find /dev/rtc. I have tried to add rtc_cmos
to /conf.d/modules, but the module loads after the service starting.
So, questions are:
1. How to force the module loading be before the service starting?
I believe /etc/modules.d/* may do it. AFAIK it runs very early in the
init sequence

If understand well, those files (in /etc/modules.d/) contain
configuration options for modules rather a list of modules to load.
The was /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6 file wich at some update
point magically disappered. I think Gentoo developers suppose some
replacement for this file.

I still have that file on one of my systems. My other system is running
openrc which does not have that file but it does have
/etc/conf.d/modules.

'hwclock' contains this fragment:
ebegin "Setting system clock using the hardware clock [${utc}]"
if [ -e /proc/modules -a ! -e /dev/rtc ]; then
modprobe -q rtc || modprobe -q genrtc
fi
But there are no such modules at all :-) I have installed openrc since
april, but have got time-related problem only now.

I was just letting you know where the file moved to for auto-loading
modules. I'm not sure why hwclock isn't loading the module. You could
try changing the modprobe -q to modprobe -v. To make the output verbose.
