I belleve Bering forked from an "rc" version of Dachstein.
Later Charles added a handy way for loading the modules from the CD.

Instead of copying modules to the /lib/modules directory and then backing up modules.lrp

Just put this in your /etc/modules file to pull a module from the CD during boot.

! iso9660 /dev/cdrom
! dir /lib/modules/2.4.20/kernel/drivers/net/tulip

tulip

! dir /lib/modules/2.4.20/kernel/drivers/net
#slhc
#ppp_generic
#ppp_async

! dir /lib/modules/2.4.20/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter
ip_conntrack_ftp
#ip_conntrack_h323
ip_conntrack_irc
#ip_nat_h323
ip_nat_ftp
ip_nat_irc


Each section in the /etc/modules file could have a different ! dir entry. All the user has to do is uncomement the needed modules and backup modules. No need to copy them to the /lib/modules directory.


This would make iso versions of LEAF a lot easier to setup.
