Hello, > kernel can load modules as and when needed. For example, if you have > compiled the kernel making parport and parport_pc as modules; these modules > are not loaded at boot time (until configured to load at boot time by > /etc/modules). Whenever any application needs these modules, kernel loads > the modules first (using modprobe) and then applications can avail the > functionality provided by module. My question is HOW does it do it. If you had read my question carefully, then you should have realized that I already know that it is happening (rather I am seeing it happening) and now i am asking HOW does it do it. -- Kernelnewbies: Help each other learn about the Linux kernel.
