Package: module-init-tools
Version: 3.4-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

The module-init-script in init.d loads
the modules listed in /etc/modules.
Unfortunatly this does not work if the
module is blacklisted as the environment
var MODPROBE_OPTIONS includes "-b" during bootup
(set via init from the initramfs).
This is a problem if you want to prevent udev
from loading specific modules (for example a
raid controller), and load it in a user
defined order later.
