Adding extra modules in /lib/modules

You can add many features to your LEAF "Bering" distribution by adding extra kernel modules. Once you know which modules you need, download them from the LEAF Bering modules directory to a standard (1,44M formatted) floppy disk. Boot the LEAF "Bering" floppy. Once you see the LEAF menu, remove the LEAF floppy and replace it with the modules floppy. Then issue the following commands:

mount -t msdos /dev/fd0 /mnt
cd /mnt
cp needed1.o needed2.o ... /lib/modules
cd /
umount /mnt
lrcfg

Through the LEAF Packages configuration menu select "modules" and declare those modules you need to load in /etc/modules.

Remember to save and backup modules.lrp !

Important

The LEAF "Bering" /etc/modules file contains templates to setup a bridge, to access to an IDE Hard-disk or CD-ROM and to activate USB.
