systemd-modules-load.service systemd-modules-load Load kernel modules at boot

`systemd-modules-load.service`

`/usr/lib/systemd/systemd-modules-load`

## Description

`systemd-modules-load.service` is an early boot service that loads kernel modules. It reads static configuration from files in `/usr/` and `/etc/`, but also runtime configuration from `/run/` and the kernel command line (see below).

See modules-load.d 5 for information about the configuration format of this service and paths where configuration files can be created.

## Kernel Command Line

`systemd-modules-load.service` understands the following kernel command line parameters:

`modules_load=`
`rd.modules_load=`

  Takes a comma-separated list of kernel modules to statically load during early boot. The option prefixed with `rd.` is read by the initial RAM disk only.
