Hi,
I want to autoload ide-scsi.o on each boot. In debian there is a file
/etc/modules
in which I can iclude the names of the modules that are to be loaded at boot time
As I remember in gentoo there was a similar /etc/modules.auto or something ...
is there an appropriate place in a redhat distribution or I should write my own rc script?

Did you have a look at /etc/modules.conf ?

or in Centos4/Beta : at the /etc/modprobe.conf

if I want to load ide-scsi.o what exactly should I write in /etc/modules.conf? _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@caosity.org http://lists.caosity.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Not really. You are telling the kernel from the command line which device is the cd-rom. If the cd writer was there when you did the install it should have been set up that way for you.

AFAIK, it is the redhat initscripts which process this, not the kernel. Not really complex because everything else (kernel, device nodes) should be set up already (standard parts of rhel). If you have a cd-burner, the ide-scsi will also be set up by default (anaconda?)
/etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit: # If they asked for ide-scsi, load it if strstr "$cmdline" ide-scsi ; then modprobe ide-cd >/dev/null 2>&1 modprobe ide-scsi >/dev/null 2>&1 fi
If you add a cd-burner after the install, kudzu should detect it but I don't know if that can modify the boot config.
If you did not want to use the redhat way, modules.conf is not the place, that is for autoloaded modules. The best place would be /etc/rc.d/rc.local
