Can someone please clarify for me the differences here?
/etc/modules-load.d
/etc/modprobe.d
and the file:
/etc/sysconfig/modules
All these various module dirs are confusing.
The only one in the SysV version of LFS is /etc/sysconfig/modules. In
Section 7.2.2 it says:
"modules
Loads kernel modules listed in /etc/sysconfig/modules, using arguments
that are also given there
"
The comments in the file explain the usage. You could also read the
/etc/init.d/modules script to see what it is doing. Honestly, I've never
had to load a module via a script or manually in the last 10 years or so.
The kernel now seems to know how to do it.
I do not have /etc/modules-load.d or /etc/modprobe.d. They are, perhaps
from systemd or perhaps you are looking at another distro.
