Hello List,
My modem driver-needed to be built from source-created device nodes
like /dev/slamr0 ,/dev/slusb0.When I rebooted I found these nodes
cleared and the daemon slmodemd dead.
I also need to install modules ungrab-winmodem and slamr in that order
and I have put them in /etc/modprobe.conf in that order.If the order
is reversed,slamr is grabbed by the kernel.But on rebooting,I found
in the messages slamr grabbed by the kernel.Obviuosly, module slamr
got loaded first.
It appears there is some process earlier which loads slamr module
prior to the processing of /etc/modprobe.conf.
The sequence I want is,
1.Load ungrab module
2.load slamr module
3.run init process /etc/init.d/slmodemd
This used to occur in this sequence in FC1 through FC2. I am having
persistent problem in FC4.
My knowledge of Boot process is not well enough to figure out what's
going wrong.
Howdy Parameshwara!
I am going to assume that you are using udev, because that is the
'standard' with FC3 and 4... There is a directory... /etc/udev/devices
If you create the devices in there (or copy them from /dev to there)
they will come back immediately when the system is restarted.
