3.9. Loading kernel modules automatically at system boot time

Procedure

1. Select a kernel module you want to load during the boot process.

   The modules are located in the /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/<SUBSYSTEM>/ directory.

2. Create a configuration file for the module:

   # echo <MODULE_NAME> > /etc/modules-load.d/<MODULE_NAME>.conf

   注意

   When entering the name of a kernel module, do not append the .ko.xz extension to the end of the name. Kernel module names do not have extensions; their corresponding files do.

Verification

1. After reboot, verify the relevant module is loaded:

   $ lsmod | grep <MODULE_NAME>

   重要

   The changes described in this procedure will persist after rebooting the system.

   See the modules-load.d(5) man page on your system for more information.
