[yocto] No '/lib/modules' directory in image, modprobe fails
Hello, We're trying to load and unload modules using modprobe but are having problems. The command fails with "modprobe: can't change directory to '/lib/modules': no such file or directory". There is actually no /lib/modules directory on the image at all. We tried to install the linux-libc-headers package but it failed and I think the reason is we are using the 3.14 kernel and the package is 3.19. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks, Todd -- ___ yocto mailing list yocto@yoctoproject.org https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/yocto

Any help would be appreciated! linux-libc-headers is kernel APIs for userland. The modules are generated as individual packages during kernel build. You can choose which modules you want to package default it none. if you want all default modules to be included in image you can add MACHINE_EXTRA_RRECOMMENDS = " kernel-modules” to you machine.conf Otherwise if you know which ones your system needs then you can add it to IMAGE_INSTALL individually.
