Hmm, yeah I should have included what I

troubleshooting or even solving! You apparently elected not to
for reasons best known to yourself. Thus - I think - it's time to put

Does anyone happen to know how you would *attach* *not readin the

I'm considering *not* loading unecessary modules in a new kernel, so I
need to ask what seems like some dumb questions.
In the kernel config file (MYKERNEL in this case) does commenting out
stuff there stop some modules from loading? So for example if I comment
out SCSI support are the relevant
