I am playing with VMCP. It uses a driver named vmcp.ko that appears as
/dev/vmcp. In order for this to work the driver must be loaded. It can be
done manually with modprobe or insmod. I wanted it to be done automatically
at boot time so I created an init script and used insserv to set it up. It
works.
It seems to me that there must be a better way to have a driver loaded at
boot time. Isn't there a file that has a list of such things?
modprobe.conf.local just has alias names and options. It doesn't seem to
force loading.

Toto, I have a feeling we're not in the mainframe world any more.
