Thank you very much for your suggestions and the patch against /etc/init.d/kerneld you supplied. Well, for your patch: this doesn´t apply cleanly to my (plain potato) kerneld script, but I got the idea. ;-) The source of my troubles with the modutils script might be the fact that I tried to boot my hand-rolled kernel from another directory than /boot (the other script I complained about, /etc/init.d/modutils, seems to get fooled because /boot is present, but I´m not booting from there). > feel free to file a bug against modutils with this patch. Not in the current state of my research/newbieness/whatever. Thanks again, scr
