I posted the new kmod package here explicitly so that users can get this package in preparation... I'll post it again since I changed the server I'm hosting these on: updated URL: http://pkgbuild.com/~dreisner/linux-usrmove/ There is no way of moving the modules already to /usr/lib ? I assume kmod now only looks in /lib. Currently, kmod is patched to respect config dirs in /usr/lib, but modules in /lib. After removing the patch, it uniformly searches /usr/lib for everything (I'm intentionally ignoring /etc and /run here). Another note, people with custom repositories should move their kernels in sync with the official repositories ? --Ike As with any large change, I'll mention on dev-public when this goes to testing, and there will be an associated news item when it moves to core. I realize this is a harsh change, but I don't really have many options for doing this more smoothly. If you're using the stock kernel, this should all just work. mkinitcpio has supported this setup for months now, and I've had my own kernel in /usr/lib/modules for almost as long. Worst case scenario, users of custom kernels can: - manually move /lib/modules/mycustomkernel to /usr/lib/modules/ until they can do a proper rebuild. - boot a stock -ARCH kernel (you DO have it listed as a fallback, right?) until they can do a proper rebuild. Emphasis on until they can do a proper rebuild. It's important that this all gets done before we introduce a new glibc package that wipes out /lib entirely. If you have custom kernel bits lying around in /lib/modules, it's going to block the eventual glibc upgrade that brings this (no, it won't be immediately with 2.16). dave pgpVhaeTgKoDD.pgp Description: PGP signature

You either read modules from /lib/modules or /usr/lib/modules. Not both.
