*coldplug-20040920 (20 Sep 2004)

20 Sep 2004; Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@gentoo.org> +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 :)
