hi, I am using a etinc et5025-16 board that recives a
19,2 hdlc internet line on freebsd 3x-release, and we
would like to upgrade using cvs, but, we dont know how
upgrade process deal with the board loaded modules in
kernel, i mean, the board came with kind of "drivers"
and there is some .o files involved, so, how can i
upgrade the kernel saving the board funcionality?

also, each driver is designed for a especific kernel
version (example, et5025-fbsd-4.1...etc)so, how is the
whole upgrade?

thanks alot for your comments, recently i read
"adventure: upgrading freebsd" in daemonnews.com and
it's pretty usefull..

a big hug to freebsd users worldwide.
