Is my guess about the /src/release/Makefile right or wrong? BTW when 5.2.1-RC2 is going to be released? I saw few cvs commits with preparation to this release.

Could it be a result of revision 1.825.2.2 of the /src/release/Makefile that adds a 'strip -x' run on the kernel modules on the mfsroot floppy? -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Re: 5.2.1-RC floppy install: many if_X.ko modules failed to load Date: Sat, 7 Feb 2004 14:04:41 +0000 (UTC) From: freebsd-current-local@be-well.ilk.org (Lowell Gilbert) > [my very first email, skipped] It looks like miibus is having some sort of problem: the modules that complain are all dependent on it.
