Unless the lsmod command is included in the initrd, that output was created after the boot process finished. Now, I'm not sure why the OP wants/needs to have the NIC activated in the initrd, but I'm guessing that the normal network startup process that happens _after_ the initrd is what is making things work. (The only thing that comes to mind is that the root file system is on some remote device, whether NFS, iSCSI, or the like.) And yes, the order does matter. That's why we have modprobe these days. :) Mark Post ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For more information on Linux on System z, visit http://wiki.linuxvm.org/
