I noticed that 4.1 Release miibus is still not :marked as (required), is it no longer required, or is it still :not marked? I ahven't tried compiling it with miibus commented :out, I'm just assuming it's still required : MIIBUS is only required if you have an ethernet adapter that requires it. If you try to include such a device, and not MIIBUS, I'm not at all suprised that the compile fails. It is certainly possible to build a kernel without MIIBUS, though. None of my fxp(4) equipped machines use it, for instance. David To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
