kmod: failed to exec /sbin/modprobe -s -k scsi_hostadapter, errno = 2

Hey

When booting, I get following error:

Code:

kmod: failed to exec /sbin/modprobe -s -k scsi_hostadapter, errno = 2
kmod: failed to exec /sbin/modprobe -s -k scsi_hostadapter, errno = 2
kmod: failed to exec /sbin/modprobe -s -k scsi_hostadapter, errno = 2

As far as I know, I do not have any scsi devices, though I do have a cd-rw set as sr0 if that matters. I have no idea what this is about and I'm hoping anyone can tell me.
Thanks.

Regards.

i've same problem not only with scsi_hostadapter, but also with parport_lowlevel

and after googling, many people said that just harmness error messages from kmod which try to load a module

i think it's because the kernel compiled without scsi support
thats why there is no module for scsi (some)

even tough thats annoying to see that error messages every booting,
i wish someone can give an answer how to avoid that error messages

Try to put scsi_hostadapter in /etc/hotplug/blacklist, if it works...Also I think error 2 means module not found.

[edit]

from /usr/src/linux/include/asm-generic/errno-base.h :

Code:

#define ENOENT       2  /* No such file or directory */

So in this case the module is not found

Hey.

I appreciate your replies but it didn't work. I'm still getting the error messages.

Have you any output with this :

cat /etc/rc.d/rc.modules | grep -vr ^# | grep scsi

Hey.

output is:

Code:

/sbin/modprobe ide-scsi

Hello,

try to add to the file /etc/conf.modules the line:

alias scsi_hostadapter ide-scsi

my guess is that kmod is trying to load the module: scsi_hostadapter

kmod: failed to exec /sbin/modprobe -s -k scsi_hostadapter, errno = 2
kmod: failed to exec /sbin/modprobe -s -k scsi_hostadapter, errno = 2
kmod: failed to exec /sbin/modprobe -s -k scsi_hostadapter, errno = 2

when he should be loading the (scsi adapter module): ide-scsi

Hope that will help
