No, no add_drv. I was very careful to make sure that modules weren't actually loaded on installation. Since then, that's proven to be a less than optimal choice, so what we're going to do is to operate as we currently do -- modifying config files only -- and then actually load the module in the post-execute stage, so that if we're going to panic, at least we've laid all the files down correctly. If you're updating a driver (or doing anything else that forces the actions to happen on a non-live image), then obviously nothing will get loaded until you boot the other boot environment Danek _______________________________________________ pkg-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-discuss
