Bug#871045: src:debian-installer: should d-i use the busybox provided kmod binaries?
Package: src:debian-installer
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
I just realized that busybox also provides the kmod related binaries
(lsmod, depmod, insmod, modinfo, modprobe, rmmod). I wonder if we should
use that instead of the binaries from kmod. I don't really have any
opinion pro or con besides that it would save around 120kB in the
initrd.
