From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/3.3; Linux) (KHTML, like Gecko) Description of problem: rc.sysinit runs kmodule and and attempts to load modules for all hardware in the system. The problem is that at that point, no filesystems from /etc/fstab are mounted, specifically /usr. kmodule needs files in /usr/share/hwdata, which are not visible yet. So kmodule does not detect almost any devices (since it can't read any hardware data descriptions). module insertion should either be moved after /usr is mounted, or devices should be re-scanned after mounting /usr or something to this effect. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): initscripts-7.93.5-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a system where /usr is on a separate partition or drive 2. Have some hardware that kmodule needs definitions for - usually PCI cards - a SoundBlaster Live! in my case. Actual Results: The module for the PCI device in question (SBLive in my case - snd-emu10k1) is not loaded until I load it manually. Expected Results: Module should be loaded automatically.
