In that case, I must have made a change before that I forgot about. It's too bad these modifications are obliterated by the installation of a new OS. I think what I should do is put the insmod commands in a script that lives in user's home directory. There is a better chance then that I will remember to back it up before I install OS2009. I always had to mount my desktop system manually anyway, so having to run the script first is not that much worse.

That's a bit hard to believe because the kernel doesn't remember which modules were loaded before shutdown and so it can't reload them on boot up. In principle there is an autoloading facility for device drivers using modprobe/depmod but I don't think it is used on the tablets and it wouldn't help with NFS either. So, I think the proper way to make the installation permanent is actually to put the insmod lines into a script run at boot time (e.g. at the end of /etc/init.d/rcS). No idea which magic did this for you on OS2007. Maybe some package modifies the init files such as to load the modules?

NFS - must insmod after every boot
I followed the directions in the wiki for installing NFS: http://maemo.org/community/wiki/settingupnfs/ I find that I have to execute the 3 insmod instructions every time I boot. It was sufficient to run them only once before I upgraded to OS2008 (on an N800). Is there an easy way to make the installation permanent so that I don't have to run these commands every time? I suppose that I could put them in a script that runs whenever I boot, but I did not need to do that on OS2007. -- Jeffrey Barish ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users
