Description David Flogeras 2016-09-16 21:20:21 UTC

Since support was added to openrc to autoload modules like systemd, I would like a way to prevent certain modules from loading.  I don't need virtualbox drivers loaded automatically.  If the init.d/modules and modules-load scripts added --use-blacklist to the modprobe args, that would probably be sufficient.

Reproducible: Always
