29 You should list the modules you want automatically loaded in
30 <path>/etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6</path>. You can add extra options to
31 the modules too if you want.
32 </p>
33
34 <p>
35 To view all available modules, run the following <c>find</c> command. Don't
36 forget to substitute "&lt;kernel version&gt;" with the version of the kernel you
37 just compiled:

41 # <i>find /lib/modules/&lt;kernel version&gt;/ -type f -iname '*.o' -or -iname '*.ko'</i>
42 </pre>
43
44 <p>
45 For instance, to automatically load the <c>3c59x.ko</c> module, edit the
46 <path>kernel-2.6</path> file and enter the module name in it.
