Subject: How does "alias ethX drivername" in modules.conf work?
Date: 03 Aug 2001 14:29:58 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <m33d78de7d.fsf@flash.localdomain> (raw)
I'm trying to figure out how "alias ethX" works in /etc/modules.conf
Is it some "magic" in depmod / modprobe? And how is the network
interface identifier then passed into the module when it loads?
A nice whitepaper or doc or a few pointers or handholding would be
apprecated.
