I'm not comfortable with this patch. I believe there are things out there that hard code the path to modprobe/lsmod/etc so this would definitely break things.

I bet a lot of reverse dependencies and scripts out there use the commands, but I doubt so many of them use them with hardcoded path And how else are we going to find out them, if not by starting somewhere? I miss the RESOLVED, LATER solution in bugzilla :-/ At startup I got: * Loading module dm-crypt ... /etc/init.d/modules: line 59: /sbin/modprobe: No such file or directory * Failed to load dm-crypt [ !! ] * Autoloaded 0 module(s) * Checking local filesystems ... due to the /usr partition mounted later on ... Moving all /usr/bin/kmod --> /bin/ /usr/lib64/libkmod* --> /lib64/ and rebuilding all symlinks, the error has gone.

Completely unrelated to this bug. You need to use initramfs for separate /usr which mounts /usr before init. Fixed in 9-r1 and 9999 Having updated from sys-apps/kmod-9 to sys-apps/kmod-9-r1 yesterday I was suprised this morning to find that my dm-crypt /home wasn't mounted for the lack of modprobe/insmod ... infact the boot process was one failure after another (dmcrypt, alsasound, net.wlan0, etc). /usr is not on a seperate partition and other than using kmod in place of module-init-tools, and openrc-0.10.x, @system is arch. I question the wisdom of such a relocation on a -r bump .. and if there is some procedure the user need to follow for things to not go haywire then some warning should be in place.

Created attachment 311977 [details, diff] kmod-9999.ebuild.patch I suppose they are created now to / for backwards compability. Well, we shouldn't carry the bandage indefinately. I suggest we patch the live ebuild first for testing, and go from there...
