INSMOD(8) "kmod" "insmod"
# NAME
insmod - Simple program to insert a module into the Linux Kernel
# SYNOPSIS
*insmod* [_filename_] [_module options_...]
# DESCRIPTION
*insmod* is a trivial program to insert a module into the kernel. Most users
will want to use* modprobe*(8) instead, which is more clever and can handle
module dependencies.
Only the most general of error messages are reported: as the work of trying to
link the module is now done inside the kernel, the *dmesg* usually gives more
information about errors.
