How do I stop TC loading a module at boot plus dummy0 ?
« on: September 03, 2009, 08:36:06 AM »
Greetings All

What is the best way to stop a module loading at boot?

Having a quick look online suggests /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist with "blacklist evil666module" being the text of the "blacklist" file as de rigueur.

Does TC use modprobe.d, or do I mkdir /etc/modprobe.d/ and place blacklist in there? Then proceed with tar -c my_fabulous_extension.tce /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist and cp this to tce dir?

Also, how do I disable / turn off / remove dummy0? In this post here (http://forum.tinycorelinux.net/index.php?topic=1542.0) forum member jpeters writes "Make sure to change dummy0 to eth0 as wired interface..." How is this done please?

Many thanks for all advice.

Miller.

jpeters' post in that thread refers to changing it in wicd's options. /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist should work in TC.

The only barriers that can stop you are the ones you create yourself.
