iv had this problem, with slakware 3.6 i found that the modules did seem to work, however the messages did seem to slow down the boot up i found that removing the module dependencies thing from the /etc/rc.d/rc.modules ut went away all teh modules i needed to load either via compiled into teh kernel or loaded as modules work fine Terry Porter wrote: > On Mon, 21 Dec 1998 13:10:28 +0800, Regit Young <regit@wantree.com.au> wrote: > >Adrain, > > > >Not a problem to worry, first varify what are mentioned in those warning, via > >/var/log or any logging you set in your /etc/syslog.conf > > > >If those are needed, make sure that they are compiled either into the kernel or > >as modules. > > > >If not needed, simply "turn them off" via /etc/conf.modules.
