Modprobe Error at Boot

Post by steve_s »

Good morning!

I get lots of red text at boot.
Something to the effect of "Loading intel_ishtp_loadermodprobe. intel_ishtp_loader: no such device."
Then a bunch more red text, then Pausing 60 Seconds.
Then more red and something like "Loading intel_ishtp_hidmodprobe. intel_ishtp_hid: no such device."
More red, Pausing 60 seconds.

Everything runs great, just trying to speed up boot time.

Running LxPup64 from a flash drive using a save folder.

What do y'all think?

thanks in advance for any way I can fix this!

I have had a similar problem caused by a fossapup64initmodules.txt in the directory where the savefile was.

I don't know what creates it, but it is telling the init to load some kernel modules that it thinks you might need during boot.

Mine was I2C_HID for a keyboard.

If you change to a kernel with the drivers built-in rather than as separate modules, you get this error because the modules it is trying to load don't exist. If this is the case then you can delete or rename the file.
