Editing /etc/rc.sysinit is not a good idea because changes will be lost if/when a new initscripts update is published. Using /etc/rc.modules will work in both FC3 and FC4 but is "deprecated". In FC4 you can create a script with a name ending in ".modules" in /etc/sysconfig/modules and that will get run at around the same time that rc.modules would be run. This is the "approved" may of doing this now. Paul. -- Paul Howarth <paul@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
