To update things, I was under the impression that ``make buildworld buildkernel'' then ``make installworld installkernel'' was the idea. This doesn't build modules, but building from sys/compile/whatever builds another kernel... Is anybody going to finish what was started and make buildkernel/installkernel do the modules too ? 2. Installing rtc.ko (ports/emulators/rtc) gives exec format errors at boot time. 3. Building vmware2 now fails due to the move of bsd.kmod.mk and ultimately suffers from the same exec format error as rtc.ko Are there any plans to fix this stuff ? -- Brian Don't _EVER_ lose your sense of humour !
