SYNOPSIS
discover-modprobe [-n] [-v]
Description
discover-modprobe loads kernel modules identified by discover. It will
typically be invoked automatically at boot time.
Options
-n Echo the modprobe invocations instead of running them.
-v Be verbose.
Files
/etc/discover-modprobe.conf
This configuration file defines the types of modules to load
by default, and specific modules not to load.
/var/lib/discover/crash
A crash file written and erased each time discover-modprobe
attempts to load a module. If the file lingers, the computer
is assumed to have crashed while loading that module, and the
module name is added to discover-modprobe.conf as a module to
skip in the future.
