Summary 0000276: Linux 2.6 module autoloading breaks when support for 2.4 modules is disabled
Description When Linux needs a new module, the kernel calls
    /sbin/modprobe -q -- foobar
which calls:
    /sbin/insmod -q /lib/modules/2.6.x.y/.../foobar.ko

When BusyBox is configured to support only 2.6 kernels, insmod doesn't support option -q but modprobe still calls insmod with -q. Because of this, Linux 2.6 cannot automatically load any modules unless also support for Linux 2.4 modules is compiled into BusyBox.
Additional Information This bug is probably related to 0000272.

"Larhzu",

Could you check that svn head fixes it for you?

I want this bug closed before 1.2.0.
