Perhaps I wasn't clear... I don't want to disable kudzu, I just want to make sure all the hardware is configured correctly so kudzu doesn't need to configure it. Maybe the more appropriate question is: How do I automatically configure a modem from the kickstart %post section?

I don't want it disabled.. I just don't want it to run for a piece of hardware I know is there. In other words, I want to make sure the hardware is configured BEFORE the first boot, so kudzu doesn't NEED to configure it. > Alternative is to find for the kudzu database file (somewhere in > /etc/sysconfig, I believe), and cut 'n paste the part about your modem > into the %post section. I don't believe this will really do anything, except prevent kudzu from detecting the modem needs to be configured. I don't believe it will actually configure the modem. > On Thu, 28 Jun 2001, Wouter Liefting wrote: > >> I have a system containing an embedded modem and I'd like the modem to >> be configured during the installation process. >> >> The modem is on /dev/ttyS0 (aka COM1), although for some strange reason >> the hardware manufacturer decided to use IRQ 11 instead of the standard >> IRQ 4.
