1 Ok, I am prepping for the udev update this weekend, getting everything
2 updated that doesn't pull in the udev updates.
3
4 First thing I did was to eliminate the module-init-tools<>kmod Blocker:
5
6 emerge -C module-init-tools %% emerge kmod
7
8 and noted the following warnings/errors:
9
10 Checking for suitable kernel configuration options...
11 ERROR: setup
12 CONFIG_MODULES: is not set when it should be.
13 CONFIG_MODULE_UNLOAD: is not set when it should be.
14
15 This is a server, and I do not WANT loadable modules enabled...
16
17 So, how do I get rid of this warning/error? Or is this nothing to be
18 concerned about if I do not want/need loadable modules?
19
20 Thanks
