In addition, I also think that /sys/kernel/config/target/$TCM_MOD should show up automatically when I load the module. vine:/home/fujita# modprobe iscsi_target_mod Then why do I need to create iscsi directory by hand? vine:/home/fujita# mkdir /sys/kernel/config/target/iscsi btw, 'iscsi' needs to renamed to iscsi_tcp or something like that? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
