I recently needed to recover a system by manually preloading a driver. To a bit of surprise, simple 'load $modname' did not work, I had to use 'load /boot/kernel/$modname.ko'. I didn't have to do this in a long time, but I recall that the short command used to work. Additionally, required modules also failed to get loaded automatically because loader couldn't find them. I am not sure what the issue is. Is it that /boot/kernel is not in module path (as per /boot/defaults/loader.conf) ? Or is it that /boot/kernel does not get added to the *effective* module path? Thanks! -- Andriy Gapon
