Equivalent of rc.modules, rc.M, rc.gpm in Arch?

linus72 · 05-24-2010, 06:05 PM

So, I'm still learning Arch and need to know
in slackware I have rc.modules-$KVER, rc.M, and rc.gpm
what/where are the same files in Arch linux?

EDIT:
I'm asking 'cause I'm gonna add a Arch built nFlux livecd/usb
with persistency,etc and installable to hdd.
I gotta convert some slack/slax stuff over to Arch
and I also compiled a 2.6.33.3 kernel for the arch nflux.

thanks

Most configuration in Arch is done through /etc/rc.conf IIRC. I'm fairly sure that's where modules are loaded and services configured. It's a logical place to start.

Thanks kilgoretrout;

so, basically just copy the stuff from rc.M, and edit rc.conf for whatever is in
rc.M?

Arch seems both similar and very different than Slack
I love them both though and its now time to learn Arch
Glad they got a great wiki,etc

Thanks
