<html><head></head><body>Installing dracut on Ubuntu removes my desktop manager. If I try and install my desktop manager again it wants to remove dracut. Blacklisting the radeon driver is not an option because if you blacklist a module then you can't load it from "/etc/modules" it gives a error like "module is blacklisted". <div class="gmail_quote">On October 28, 2015 11:56:59 AM PDT, Tom H <tomh0665@gmail.com> wrote:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;"> <pre class="k9mail"><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 1ex 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid #729fcf; padding-left: 1ex;"> On Mon, Oct 26, 2015 at 4:52 PM, Manvir Singh <webmaster@programming4life.com> wrote: <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 1ex 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid #ad7fa8; padding-left: 1ex;"> I need to load the "vfio" module before the "radeon" module starts. How can I do this in Ubuntu? In Fedora I can achieve this with "rd.driver.pre=vfio-pci" in my grub config, but how would I do this in Ubuntu 15.10? </blockquote> Try using dracut on Ubuntu, if it's available, and use rd.driver.pre. or Blacklist radeon in "/etc/modprobe.d/" and list vfio before radeon in "/etc/modules" (or "/etc/modules-load.d/"). </blockquote> Forgot! Rebuild your after making the module changes. </pre></blockquote></div></body></html>
