'overwrite' conveys the idea of the old text being destroyed. 'override' does not. It is more similar to 'overrule'.

<title>Description</title>
|
|
|
|
<para><command>systemd</command> uses
|
|
files from the above directories to configure
|
|
kernel modules to load during boot in a static list.
|
|
Each configuration file is named in the style of
|
|
<filename>/etc/modules-load.d/<program>.conf</filename>. Note
|
|
that it is usually a better idea to use the automatic
|
|
module loading by PCI ID, by DMI ID or similar
|
|
triggers configured in the kernel modules themselves
|
|
instead of relying on static configuration like
|
|
this.</para>

|
|
<title>Configuration Format</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>The configuration files should simply contain a
|
|
list of kernel module names to load, separated by
|
|
newlines. Empty lines and lines whose first
|
|
non-whitespace character is # or ; are ignored.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Each configuration file is named in the style of
|
|
<filename><program>.conf</filename>.
|
|
Files in <filename>/etc/</filename> override
|
|
files with the same name in <filename>/usr/lib/</filename>.
|
|
Files in <filename>/run</filename> override files with
|
|
the same name in <filename>/etc/</filename> and
|
|
<filename>/usr/lib/</filename>. Packages should install their
|
|
configuration files in <filename>/usr/lib/</filename>, files
|
|
in <filename>/etc/</filename> are reserved for the local
|
|
administration, which possibly decides to override the
|
|
configurations installed from packages. All files are sorted
|
|
by filename in alphabetical order, regardless in which of the
|
|
directories they reside, to ensure that a specific
|
|
configuration file takes precedence over another file with
|
|
an alphabetically later name.</para>
