Hello, I am running RedHat 9 with 2.4.20-8 kernel ; Now , I have a questo about hotplug: I have hotplug-2002_04_01-17 installed (rpm);
Now , I read the readme of this rpm ; in their "installing" section , clause 5 , it says: # cp etc/rc.d/init.d/hotplug /etc/rc.d/init.d/hotplug # cd /etc/rc.d/init.d # chkconfig --add hotplug
I checked on my machine and there is no "hotplug" file in that folder. Nevertheless, hotplugin works (because when I plug a USB camera I can see in the kernel log (/var/log/messages) messages which start with /etc/hotplug/usb.agent
I also looked at the kernel code (method "call_polcy" in usb.c ) and it doesn't seems to me that the hotplug in /etc/init.d is needed .
can anybody make some clarifications ? sting
