The feature is "nice to have" for autodetecting mkinitrd. I.e. currently it is mostly possible to walk up starting from root device, collect modaliases and resolve them to modules. But if modalias is not resolved there is no obvious way to check, if driver is builtin. Of course, it is always possible to take optimistic approach and assume driver is just available ... regards - -andrey -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFEVK7SR6LMutpd94wRAqM2AJ9qUO8f5omaCr3yYOz5/4631ePiRgCfT3/H 3Ec8nVJT1U3ZaKI5LVzl6/k= =zlrx -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
