Title: bootlocal.sh is executed before extensions are loaded?
Post by: jvalencia on July 30, 2016, 06:15:51 AM

I'm using copy2fs.flg so that means that at boot, extensions are copied to fs.

I supposed that copying happened before executing bootlocal.sh but I've found that my wlan module isn't loaded at the moment.

I know I can insert a sleep in the script, but it's ugly.

How would you implement a hook so the script is only run after the module is loaded?

How can I know if all extensions have already been copied in case I need one for my script?

Thanks

bootlocal.sh  is executed  after  extensions are loaded or copied to RAM.

Why is sleep ugly?
bootlocal.sh runs in background so you shouldn't notice any delay.

However, you can also do

Code: [Select]

{ sleep 2 ; /your/script ; } &
or

Code: [Select]

for i in `seq 10 -1 0` ; do
if [ -e /sys/class/net/wlan0 ] ; then
/your/script &
break
fi
sleep 1
done

Yes, it's the module that is not autoloaded in time. I suppose I can manually load it from the script or just wait for
the interface to appear, like your script.
