Has anybody got any advice/knowledge about this 'exec format error', I've tried recompiling the kernel without success (in loading the module), and I've even compiled the module on its own and was still unable to load it. # kldload /sys/modules/linux/linux.ko kldload: can't load linux: Exec format error I get the same error with the linprocfs and linsysfs modules. Any thoughts? Thanks, Will
