my /etc/modules.d/ipw3945 file contains the following: |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
install ipw3945 /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install ipw3945 ; sleep 0.2; |
| 11 |
/sbin/ipw3945d --quiet |
| 12 |
remove ipw3945 /sbin/ipw3945d --kill ; sleep 0.2; /sbin/modprobe -r |
| 13 |
--ignore-remove ipw3945 |
| 14 |
alias pci:v00008086d00004222sv*sd*bc*sc*i* off |
| 15 |
alias pci:v00008086d00004227sv*sd*bc*sc*i* off |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
The alias lines are necessary to prevent udev from coldplugging the |
| 18 |
driver which otherwise would occur at a very early point in the boot |
| 19 |
sequence...in fact before /var is mounted on my system. Without /var |
| 20 |
mounted and read-write, ipw3945d cannot start. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
I then "/sbin/modprobe ipw3945" in /etc/conf.d/local.start to load the |
| 23 |
module near the end of the boot sequence. |
| 24 |

Perhaps you need to do something similar? |
