Where in the kernel config is the "ide_disk" module?
as i'm missing this on bootup and of course it locks and no root device found.. -> busybox gets me busy.
took a screenshot of the cat /proc/modules and compared it to the distro-original "lsmod". all ide stuff there but "ide_disk" i'm hunting the "make menuconfig" after it, locate, find -name ... etc. how can i search inside files? or what module does call it? seems to be a child of "ide_core"? but i also don't find that in menuconfig search via / i don't wanna get busy with busybox til' xmas :( thx for help btw.: i often read of module names, but don't find them in the menuconfig's descriptions, browsing for hours... how can i handle that better? and is it possible to add one module after compiling and installing the kernel and just insmod/modprobe it? (guess not ...) how can i save logs or output of discovered stuff in busy box to a file in my working userspace? regards marquisor |
device module names have (_ = -)
dashes or underscores can be changed. the module is probably named ata-something... (pata_amd ata_piix)amd processor here. try, Code:
lsmod | grep ata Code:
lsmod > ~/module-list the destination directory must exist. Code:
Device Drivers ---> |
i guess i have to start from scratch with make localmodconfig again?
there are modules listed in lsmod and cat /proc/modules but i can't yet find any documentation where those modules get loaded, are included in or else.. i meant with "print out" how i can save it on disk for later use on the running kernel. the grep stuff and piping and >>> i already know :) ok i should have started from more modules than needed to strip it down, than from less than needed and always recompile... well, experience made. ok please tell me how i configure modules loaded, not loaded at booting. that might help. then i could buy the whole diskstuff as modules and test around. any other suggestions? like urgent debugging messages? |

Save your .config file. to someplace safe, and reuse it at will. Mind you some patches may not get applied fully if left completely unattended. After I have rebuilt my kernel the .config file is found at ... /usr/src/linux/.config hope this helps.
