This is used by the LiveCD to allow /lib/firmware to be tmpfs without losing any firmwares that were installed on the LiveCD and allows users to provdie their own firmwares. 21 Jan 2005; Lars Weiler coldplug-20040920.ebuild: Stable on ppc. 27 Nov 2004; Jason Huebel coldplug-20040920.ebuild: stable on amd64 10 Nov 2004; Greg Kroah-Hartman coldplug-20040920.ebuild: marked 20040920 stable on x86 as hotplug just went stable 28 Sep 2004; Sven Wegener files/coldplug.rc: Gentoo Technologies, Inc. -> Gentoo Foundation 24 Sep 2004; Sven Wegener : Fixed ChangeLog header. *coldplug-20040920 (20 Sep 2004) 20 Sep 2004; Greg Kroah-Hartman +metadata.xml, +files/coldplug.rc, +coldplug-20040920.ebuild: New package, coldplug. Split out from hotplug to hold the init script that tries to load modules for devices that are already present in the system at boot time. It can cause problems and lockups, so use at your own risk. I've disabled the ability to unload stuff at shutdown as that just caused too many problems, lockups, and oopses. No other distro enables this feature, and now I realize why :)
