Subject: [gentoo-user]  modules built post kernel install (on the fly)
Date: Sat, 04 Mar 2006 09:15:04 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87ek1ickcn.fsf@newsguy.com> (raw)

Is this possible:

Compile a module by itself (not during kernel compile) and insert
that module into a running kernel.

I'm pretty sure this is possible but have no idea how to do it.
Pawing thru google. `site:gentoo.org modules "on the fly" ' and
similar strings .... even just `kernel module'

Turns up scads of stuff but none of it is hitting this head on.. or I
didn't paw far enough.... so asking here for pointers to documentation
that will cover this.
