Question may seem illogical but I still need clarification.

discover-modprobe.conf(5) File Formats Manual discover-modprobe.conf(5)NAME
discover-modprobe.conf -- configuration file for discover-modprobe(5)Description
discover-modprobe.conf is the configuration file for discover-modprobe, which is responsible for retrieving and loading kernel modules.
Warning:
This file is a shell script, and as such is subject to a string variable assignment syntax. No space is allowed between the variable
name, the equal (=) sign, and the value(s) assigned. If multiple values are to be assigned, the list must be space-delimited with
surrounding quotes.
Two directives can be used in this file: types and skip. Both can be defined multiple times.
types This describes the classes of hardware that should be scanned and queried.
skip These modules should never be loaded. See the ``Files'' section for details on the mechanism for generating these entries auto-
matically.
Files
/var/lib/discover/crash
A crash file written and erased each time discover-modprobe attempts to load a module. If the file lingers, the computer is
assumed to have crashed while loading that module, and the module name is added to discover-modprobe.conf as a module to skip in
the future.
