[gentoo-dev] udev coldplugging and /etc/init.d/modules

[Sven Köhler]

Hi,

when does udev load all the modules and does coldplug?
Is it happening before /etc/init.d/modules?

If yes, than i would like to shout: are you crazy?

Well, until udev became stable, /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.? was a
good place, to load modules in a specific order - before coldplug.

Unfortunatly, the order of loading of modules defines the ordner of the
network-interfaces (if you different types of network cards).

So can you imagine, loading the modules before udev's coldplug happens?
