The minimal rc6 iso environment only allows insmod. If you execute |
| 29 |
modprobe it prints a message stating please use insmod. |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
The key is to check dependencies in the modules.dep file. |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
Also, the current rc6 iso does not have pppd present. I was able to |
| 34 |
connect to the network by mounting my Vector linux partition and copying |
| 35 |
pppd and wvdial to the gentoo partition. Wvdial requires libstdc++ so I |
| 36 |
had to copy it into /mnt/gentoo/usr/local/lib. Plus, I was lucky that |
| 37 |
the vector linux binaries would work in the gentoo environment. |
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
So, I ended up loading the following modules before chrooting: |
| 40 |
|
| 41 |
scsi_mod |
| 42 |
sd_mod |
| 43 |
sr_mod |
| 44 |
aic7xxx |
| 45 |
slhc |
| 46 |
ppp_generic |
| 47 |
ppp_async |
| 48 |
ppp_deflate |
| 49 |
