Bug#319755: linux-image-2.6.12-1-686: conflict during boot between genrtc and rtc



reassign 319755 initrd-tools
retitle 319755 initrd should not load rtc modules
severity 319755 important
thanks

I've discovered that it is not possible to 'modprobe -r genrtc' after the 
system is up and replace it with the regular rtc module.

All in all there seems to be no reason for the initrd to load rtc modules. 
The best option would be to leave this to the regular boot process after 
the pivotroot; that way the user has a chance to influence what's loaded.

Note: I've found that initrd-tools in Sarge has the same problem in 
combination with the 2.6.8 kernel.
