Subject: [PATCH] Fix instmods recursing indefinitely
Date: Fri, 27 Feb 2009 13:25:38 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <49A7DBC2.8020503@bfh.ch> (raw)

the instmod function inside dracut-functions starts to recurses indefinitely
if modprobe --show-depends is used and the output contains module options. 

Example:

#modprobe --show-depends libata
insmod /lib/modules/2.6.27-11-generic/kernel/drivers/acpi/dock.ko 
insmod /lib/modules/2.6.27-11-generic/kernel/drivers/scsi/scsi_mod.ko 
insmod /lib/modules/2.6.27-11-generic/kernel/drivers/ata/libata.ko ignore_hpa=1


This patch fixes this.
