|
|
I upgraded one of my systems to the latest ~amd64, including gentoo-sources-3.7.0 and I noticed the boot process no longer loads the required module (tg3) automatically, thus net.eth0 and therefor sshd won't start. Logging in, `modprobe tg3` gives no warning and then works as expected.
I didn't make any changes regarding module loading, so is this an error in (I guess) openrc or have I missed a change? _________________ ++++++++++[>+++++++>++++++++++>+++>+<<<<-]>++.>+.+++++++..+++.>++.<<+++++++++++++++.>.+++.------.--------.>+.>. |

Lots of people have been having this problem in the last few weeks (myself included), it seems to be a breakage in udev. For a workaround you can use /etc/conf.d/modules. |

Thanks for the heads-up, I'll try that.
For what it's worth, I'm guessing openrc. I had udev masked to <=172 and it failed someday and after portage wanted to install eudev, I switched to that and it still happens(don't know which version that is based on, though). _________________ ++++++++++[>+++++++>++++++++++>+++>+<<<<-]>++.>+.+++++++..+++.>++.<<+++++++++++++++.>.+++.------.--------.>+.>. |

Try using the kmod flag. I experienced a similar problem with eudev which whet away when I activated this flag. _________________ First things first, but not necessarily in that order.
Apologies if I take a while to respond. I'm currently working on the dematerialization circuit for my blue box. |
