In an attempt to simplify whereever possible, I wanted to stop some networking modules from being loaded when starting. I wanted to remove macchanger and ip6to4 for a specific interface, by adding a line to /etc/conf.d/net Code: modules_eth1=( "!macchanger" "!ip6v4" ) When restarting the interface eth1, I got the following error/warning Quote: * Stopping eth1 * Loading networking modules for eth1 * modules: apipa arping ccwgroup clip macchanger macnet rename ifplugd iptunnel ifconfig iproute2 pppd system dhcpcd ip6to4 * Bringing down eth1 * Stopping ifplugd on eth1 ... [ ok ] * Starting eth1 * Loading networking modules for eth1 /etc/init.d/net.eth1: line 364: macnet_check_installed: command not found /etc/init.d/net.eth1: line 364: ip6to4_check_installed: command not found * modules: apipa arping ccwgroup clip rename ifplugd iptunnel iproute2 pppd system dhcpcd Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: See description Actual Results: An error message as in the description. It looks like the module is not loaded as is expected. (Not extensively tested). Expected Results: Same behaviour, except that the error message should not come. this seems to be due to the fact thyat some modules are missing the _check_installed function which is called from /etc/init.d/net.* using a simlple grep, these modules can be found: apipa ccwgroup essidnet ip6to4 iptunnel macchanger macnet rename system
