| |
I have modules and kerneld working quite well on my systems. The question that I have is this:
Since nfs.o forks 4 useless processes when loaded (nfsiod), it will never be auto-removed. Mounting doesn't use any of those processes, a new one is started so the use count is never lower than 4. I have figured out a 'post-install' command for kerneld that kills these useless processes and allows auto-unload. What kind of fate am I tempting using this command?
BTW the reason that I didn't just post the actual line from /etc/conf.modules is that if this is a Bad Thing(tm), I don't want everyone to start using it.
