What is dynamically lodable kernel modules?

[James R. Ferguson]

Hi:

These are kernel modules that aren't loaded (at boot) until software requiring them requests the module.

ok... what is kernel parameters and kernel modules?

[merieux]

Hi ,

Kernel parametre allow to tune your kernel for having the behavior researched . Kernel parameter are only values . You can define the max nomber processes of your system or the max inod which could be opened at the same time .

Kernel module could be considered like kernel library, there are not just a parameter . kcmodule give you the list of module used or unused ...

Hope having reply to your question.

Have a good day ,
Xavier
