Ian Wienand 39fb794ebc Allow debootstrap to cleanup without a kernel Currently there's more-or-less an assumption that a kernel is installed, so module blacklists are simply echoed into the modprobe blacklist. This may not be the case with some ongoing container work. Although we don't need to blacklist modules for containers, it also doesn't hurt. Move the debootstrap element to the new modprobe element, and allow it to create the blacklist directory. Change-Id: I0f057caf473951df56a2af9633e3a5b53e0809b1		2018-10-08 16:02:25 +11:00

modprobe
========

Allows to configure specific modprobe options on the image.

It contains the following functionalities:

1. Ability to blacklist specific modules using modprobe.d/blacklist.conf.
   In order to use set DIB_MODPROBE_BLACKLIST to the name of your
   module. To disable multiple modules you can set DIB_MODPROBE_BLACKLIST
   to a list of string separated by spaces.

   Example:

     export DIB_MODPROBE_BLACKLIST="igb"

2. Ability to copy specific files into /etc/modprobe.d directory, so it
   allows to configure settings with freedom. To achieve that, the files
   to be copied needs to be placed inside an specific modprobe.d directory
   of the element.
