I tried that, and it would be feasible for installer, but the problem is, aliases do not work with hotplug anymore in Rusty's module-init-tools. They used to work with Keith's modutils. The reason is that Rusty's modprobe only expands aliases once (he did not want to implement loop detection). But modern kernels use a wildcard string to identify a module. This string is matched with the use of an alias mechanism, so a second match won't happen. http://www.livejournal.com/users/zaitcev/34396.html http://www.livejournal.com/users/zaitcev/34596.html -- Pete -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
