NAME
hotplug2-modwrap - modalias wrapper binary for modprobe
SYNOPSIS
hotplug2-modwrap
[modprobe options] <modalias>
DESCRIPTION
The modutils (used on 2.4 and earlier kernels to load modules) do not use fnmatch to match alias to a module. The hotplug2-modwrap application allows us to overcome this issue.
PARAMETERS
The hotplug2-modwrap itself does not take any parameters except for modalias.
However, you can pass unlimited ammount of parameters for modprobe, which is being executed by hotplug2-modwrap. Please note that modalias must be the last parameter.
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
- MODPROBE_COMMAND
-
Sets the application used as modprobe. If not set, /sbin/modprobe is used.
