modprobe: Can't locate module char-major-10-220
Hi All,
Our RHEL 3.0 u4 server has started displaying these error messages in the system logs and I can't for the life of me figure out what's causing them. I've dug around google for the past few days with no success. Has anyone else encountered this message? Any suggestions as to where I might start looking to try and figure out what's going on? It doesn't appear to be causing any problems, other than flooding our system logs with junk messages. |

Thanks for the quick response. I did already find that link, but none of the enteries below appear to match what the guy was talking about in the link.
Can I assume that the mptscsih is probably blame? /etc/modprobe.conf Code:
alias eth0 tg3 |

we get this alot on on RHEL systems. We usually just alias it off as stated above.

This is due to the NBD (Network Block Device) driver missing.
No worries, it's just used if you have some kind of software doing disc-things-off-the-net (iSCSI or DRBD for example). Since the device entries exist in the /dev directory (/dev/nb*), some process tries to find out what's going on these.. for istance the automounter in the GUI or a pvscan (in RHEL3 there's LVM1 which has no filter in the seek for physical volumes like the LVM2 counterpart). Nothing worry, but it's recommended, as long as you don't use the NBd feature, to disable it either as suggested in the modprobe.conf or deleting the nb* entries in the /dev directory. Would you need it back, just issue a MAKEDEV or mknod as per documentation. Ciao |
