Triggers run at not exactly the time you expect them to. Which makes them a little bit less helpful. Really, you want to plug-in after depmod, etc are run but before the initrd is made. And you can't do that from a trigger. Also, triggers manage to cause all sorts of crazy fun weird corner cases. Fear them. :-) Jeremy _______________________________________________ Fedora-kernel-list mailing list Fedora-kernel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-kernel-list
