Greetings,
Please help me out here.
I have /sbin/modprobe slamr in rc.local
Then I have /etc/init.d/slmodemd set to runlevels 345 to start.
The problem is the slamr module loads after the slmodemd scripts runs
I have tried placing install slamr /bin/true in /etc/modprobe.conf
and /etc/modprobe.conf.dists and /etc/modprobe.conf.local but the slamr
module doesn't load at all
I also tried creating a modules.conf with 0755 permissions and
adding /sbin/modprobe slamr to it but then it also doesn't load at at
all. I know it is obselete but I thought is was worth a try.
Where else can I put it so that it loads before the slmodemd script is
started
One option might to be to put it in your initrd, using mkinitrd with the
"--with=slamr" option.
Alternatively, could create an initscript in /etc/rc.d/init.d with a
"start" number lower than the one for /etc/rc.d/rc?.d/slmodemd so that
it gets run before that one.

With the mkinitrd option ould I have to reconfigure grub?
Only if you call the new initrd a different name than the current one.
