As I reported in the same thread as the breakage of modules in 2.5.59, module autoloading doesn't work for me since 2.5.58. Using Rusty's module-init-tools 0.9.8 or 0.9.9-pre. Same utils work flawlessly under 2.4.21-pre3.

If you're running a RedHat system, you'll also need the following patch to
/etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit. Without it the kernel's modprobe and hotplug functionalities will be disabled by rc.sysinit.etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit 2003-01-14 03:04:57.000000000 +0100 renamed from etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit.~1~ 2002-08-22 23:10:52.000000000 +0200 +1

Indeed, I'm running a RedHat 8.0 and this change to rc.sysinit brought me
up and running again. Thanks !
