The reason, as I understand it, why insmod is used rather than modprobe is that the init script is handling the traditional AFS case where the module lives in /usr/vice/etc rather than in the kernel module tree. This is still rather convenient at times for us AFS old-timers, although I agree that it's not an attractive option for packages (and indeed, the Debian init script has diverged in several respects, that being one of them). I honestly have no idea what all the prefix stuff is for; Debian disables it all and gets away with it, but I don't know why that is. -- Russ Allbery ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-devel
