Loading OSS drivers at boot



Hi,

I want to load OSS at boot. I have the commercial version, and no sound support
is compiled into my kernel (2.2.1) as the OSS documentations says.

The OSS drivers has to be loaded by root, and I want them loaded at boot time.
What I did was to copy the "soundon" script into the /etc/rc.boot directory,
and the driver is loaded and works fine. However, I get the following message
when booting after the OSS driver is loaded:

"cat uses obsolete /proc/pci interface"

Why do I get this message when I load the OSS driver at boot, and not when
loading it as a command from root? Is there another way to load it at boot? I
am really unsure about the Debian stratup scripts, and the OSS documentation
doesn't tell how to load the driver at boot time under Debian.

Btw, I am running slink.

Can anyone help? 

TIA
