During shutdown, the alsasound initscript checks what the current kernel version is, as follows: /sbin/rmmod --version | grep -q module-init-tools \ && ver="26" || ver="24" This works fine in general, but does not when using busybox to provide the rmmod command. I would say that using the above to detect the difference between 2.6 and 2.4 is not very portable, and using something like uname -r should work better. However, I suspect that in reality, the script doesn't really check what kernel version is running, but if it uses the new module-init-tools module unloading style? Ie, in order to also allow 2.5 kernels to be used correctly? In any case, my problem is that busybox rmmod does not support the --version option and thus throws an error on my console at shutdown. Can somebody perhaps enlighten me as to what the check is actually supposed to check?
