That shouldn't be necessary. Just rmmod, and modprobe should pick up the change. > Any thought what I might be doing wrong? /etc/sysctl.conf: module.sbp2.parameters.serialize_io = 1 It's another way of doing it. I am not sure if it will work, but it's worth a shot. No reboot necessary, just run sysctl, and rmmod and modprobe again. I am a little confused as to why the first way didn't get it right - modules.conf is supposed to be honored by modprobe, and if it's not, that's decidedly odd. -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Stephen Gran | A good reputation is more valuable than | | steve@lobefin.net | money. -- Publilius Syrus | | http://www.lobefin.net/~steve | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Attachment:
