modprobe/insmod woes...

[Jonathan Lyster]

Folks;


I'm using busybox 1.10 pre1. modprobe still has a problem. Here's what I'm 
seeing:

- use modprobe -s <any module>
- You'll see an error saying modprobe failed to load the module. However, if 
you drop the -s switch, the module loads fine.

The problem seems to be when modprobe calls insmod; when I use -q, I see the 
call string:

insmod -s <path-to-module>

Here's the trouble: insmod doesn't support the -s switch. So the solution is 
either to tweak modprobe so it doesn't pass the switch to insmod, or tweak 
insmod to support -s.


Regards;
   Jonathan
