The Handbook is not so clear about what you must compile statically in kernel (like so difference between make and buildkernel procedures), i suppose that if you donīt use a feature every time it will be a module (right?), but iīm a little disapointed because i must load in loader.conf and they stay there all the time or else i canīt find the device on /dev (like fdc.ko), i thought to unload all unused with kldunload but it must be done one by one. I have many others questions bsd-related like that but maybe this is not the right place, the FAQs are not enough to learn system and others hacker-like are so difficult! Where can I find a median list to ask commons operational questions? I wonder with FBSD, itīs not so easy like linux but is very much better (my opinion) :-) Thanks very much, Cleyton --------------F064CFB4B1C64ACEEE50321B--
