## NAME
       systemd-modules-load.service, systemd-modules-load - Load kernel modules at boot

## SYNOPSIS
       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)](https://www.chedong.com/phpMan.php/man/modules-load.d/5/markdown) 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 in the initrd only.

           Added in version 187.
