# mv pcitable.new pcitable
14. Remove driver entries from the module-info file that are associated with the device drivers removed in
step #9. Remove all stanzas that begin with the name of a removed device driver (3c59x, eepro100,
pcnet32, usb-ohci). For example:
3c59x
eth
"3Com 3c590/3c595/3c90x/3cx980"
eepro100
eth
"Intel EtherExpress Pro 100B"
pcnet32
eth
"AMD PCnet32"
15. Remove driver entries from the modules.dep file that are associated with the device drivers removed
in step #9. Remove all lines that make reference to the removed device drivers (3c59x, eepro100,
pcnet32, usb-ohci).
# cat modules.dep| grep –v 3c59x | grep –v eepro100 | grep –v pcnet32 |
grep –v usb-ochi> modules.dep.new
# mv modules.dep.new modules.dep
16. Add driver entries present in the drvnet.img pcitable to the initrd.img pcitable file that are associated
with the device drivers added in step #10. All entries in the pcitable file must be sorted by PCI ID.
# cat ../mnt/drv/pcitable | grep tg3 >> pcitable
# cat ../mnt/drv/pcitable | grep e1000 >> pcitable
At this point use an editor or sort script to sort the pcitable information by PCI ID.
17. Add driver entries present in the drvnet.img module-info file to the module-info file that are associated
with the device drivers added in step #10. For blades, we’ll be adding the tg3 and e1000 entries
which should look something like this:
e1000
eth
"Intel EtherExpress/1000 gigabit"
tg3
eth
"Broadcom Tigon3 ethernet driver"
18. Add driver entries present in the drvnet.img modules.dep file to the modules.dep file that are
associated with the device drivers added in step #10.
19. Copy the files copied and modified in steps 12-18 to the mounted initrd.img image.
# cp module-info pcitable modules.cgz modules.dep ../mnt/initrd/modules
20. Unmount the initrd.img from the loopback device.
# cd ..
# umount mnt/initrd
21. Compress the initrd.img file.
# gzip -9 tmp.img
# mv tmp.img.gz initrd.img
