%general-entities; %patches-entities; ]> Module-Init-Tools Module-Init-Tools attempts to rewrite it's modprobe.conf man page during the build process. Not only is this unnecessary, it relies on docbook2man which is not installed in LFS. To prevent this do the following: touch modprobe.conf.5 Prepare Module-Init-Tools for compilation: ./configure --prefix="" --enable-zlib Compile the package: make To test the results, issue: make check. Install the package: make install Installed programs depmod, genksyms, insmod, insmod_ksymoops_clean, kallsyms (link to insmod), kernelversion, ksyms (link to insmod), lsmod (link to insmod), modinfo, modprobe (link to insmod), and rmmod (link to insmod) Short Descriptions depmod Creates a dependency file based on the symbols it finds in the existing set of modules; this dependency file is used by modprobe to automatically load the required modules depmod genksyms Generates symbol version information genksyms insmod Installs a loadable module in the running kernel insmod insmod_ksymoops_clean Deletes saved ksyms and modules not accessed for two days insmod_ksymoops_clean kallsyms Extracts all kernel symbols for debugging kallsyms kernelversion Reports the major version of the running kernel kernelversion ksyms Displays exported kernel symbols ksyms lsmod Lists currently loaded modules lsmod modinfo Examines an object file associated with a kernel module and displays any information that it can glean modinfo modprobe Uses a dependency file, created by depmod, to automatically load relevant modules modprobe rmmod Unloads modules from the running kernel rmmod
