Hi,
Has any one tried to merge a custom kernel into vmlinuz/initrd.img for Centos 5 kickstart? Or similar Linux distribution?
I am rebuilding a custom kernel from stock kernel source to build some hardware modules into static form, so that the hardware detection sequence can be altered in a hard way. Quick examples are: tg3 drivers will be loaded before e1000, 3w-9xxx be loaded before 3w-9xxx, etc.
Please advice. If the object could be achieved through adjustment to /etc/modules.conf or similar files, then it could be even more fantastic.
