[SOLVED] bash script help needed please

[snoopo71]

Hi everibody!

First of all, I'm new to Fedora and i'm very happy with it, it's a great distribution!

Let's start, im writting a script to auto-install my programs and do some actions like auto-put my user in the sudoers file and so on, and I need some help in the nvidia drivers part of the code.
I've made a little function to install de akmod an drivers files, but now I want to disable the nouveau driver, I can do it manually by adding this expression " rdblacklist=nouveau " to the kernel load o0ptions in boot.conf, but I don't know how to do it automatically. Can anybody help me?

drivers_grafica(){
echo "Drivers grafica:"
yum install -y akmod-nvidia.x86_64 xorg-x11-drv-nvidia.x86_64 xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-devel.x86_64 xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-libs.x86_64

#rdblacklist=nouveau #I want to add this expression to the kernel load options!!
}

here is my line in grub.conf must look:

kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.33.5-124.fc13.x86_64 ro root=UUID=13671202-41e0-40d2-9e5b-0f775340d8c5 rd_NO_LUKS rd_NO_LVM rd_NO_MD rd_NO_DM LANG=ca_AD.UTF-8 KEYBOARDTYPE=pc KEYTABLE=es rhgb quiet rdblacklist=nouveau



If someone want the entire script say it!!

I have been playing around with bash to create something similar myself, here's my nvidia installer function:

echo "yum install -y dkms akmod-nvidia xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-libs.i686" | sh
#blacklist Nouveau:
echo "Blacklisting Nouveau, please wait. . ."

sed -i '/root=/s|$| rdblacklist=nouveau|' /boot/grub/grub.conf
mv /boot/initramfs-$(uname -r).img /boot/initramfs-$(uname   -r)-nouveau.img
dracut /boot/initramfs-$(uname -r).img $(uname -r)

else
    echo "You need to enable the RPMFusion repository first."
    echo "Enable it now?"
    echo "Yes/No" ; read opt ;

If you would have bothered to look at Leigh's Nvidia driver install guide, you would found the command(s) you are looking for:

2. Edit grub.conf ( if you omit this step the driver will fail to work )


this command adds rdblacklist=nouveau option to /boot/grub/grub.conf

Code:

su -
sed -i '/root=/s|$| rdblacklist=nouveau|' /boot/grub/grub.conf
mv /boot/initramfs-$(uname -r).img /boot/initramfs-$(uname -r)-nouveau.img
dracut /boot/initramfs-$(uname -r).img $(uname -r)

3. Reboot

[vallimar]

Nobody else seems to realize this, but you don't have to touch grub at all.
The alternative that I use, and much prefer, is adding dracut options to /etc/cmdline.
Newer versions even allow for having multiple lines, so you can have one option per line.

Thanx everybody I finally found a solution using sed, but I prefer yours. Thanx a lot!!
