[SOVLED] systemd-modules-load failed

Hey,

since I'm booting my own custom kernel (which totally works fine), the named systemd service fails to execute, but I don't know why. Directly before getting this message at boot, it says module "ipv6" could not be inserted (I've built my kernel without it).

[klemens@arch-pc ~]$ systemctl --failed
  UNIT                         LOAD   ACTIVE SUB    DESCRIPTION
● systemd-modules-load.service loaded failed failed Load Kernel Modules

LOAD   = Reflects whether the unit definition was properly loaded.
ACTIVE = The high-level unit activation state, i.e. generalization of SUB.
SUB    = The low-level unit activation state, values depend on unit type.

1 loaded units listed. Pass --all to see loaded but inactive units, too.
To show all installed unit files use 'systemctl list-unit-files'.

[klemens@arch-pc ~]$ systemctl status systemd-modules-load.service

How can I solve this problem? What actually tries to load the ipv6 module?

Systemd loads the ipv6 module at early boot. But this isn't why your service fails... Look in /etc/modules-load.d/ to figure that out.

My /etc/modules-load.d/ is empty, no module gets loaded this way.

And in /usr/lib/modules-load.d? There must be something in one of those directories, or else the service wouldn't even attempt to start (you should look at the conditions the service declares).

Thanks, I checked the needed directories and removed an existing file (module).
