Hey, I've just finally figured out why I've not been able to get bonding working properly, after a 2 days messing about with Xen and bonding. Looks like coldplug is loading the bonding module, after it's loading a nic driver. This is a problem though, the bonding module needs arguments, which I've setup in /etc/modules.d/bond (as supplied by the ebuild), and modules-update'd. If I remove the module after it's booted, and start the interface, the arguments get read correctly, as I've accessed bond0 the options to bonding for bond0 get applied.
Can I get coldplug to ignore a single module? Or is there a better way? I can specify the arguments along with the module in modules.autoload, but I'd rather not, it doesn't feel right. Thanks -- Mike Williams -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
