systemd Developer Lennart Poettering lennart@poettering.net modules-load.d 5 modules-load.d Configure kernel modules to load at boot /etc/modules-load.d/*.conf systemd uses /etc/modules-load.d/ to configure kernel modules to load during boot in a static list. Each configuration file is named in the style of /etc/modules-load.d/<program>.conf. Note that it is usually a better idea to use the automatic module loading by PCI ID, by DMI ID or similar triggers configured in the kernel modules themselves instead of relying on static configuration like this. The configuration files should simply contain a list of kernel module names to load, separated by newlines. Empty lines and lines whose first non-whitespace character is # or ; are ignored. # Load virtio-net.ko at boot virtio-net systemd1, modprobe8
