I've been able to successfully build drivers in the past as loadable modules but I'm getting some kernel panics with -CURRENT when installing a module using kldload now where things used to=20 work before. Assume I'm a complete FreeBSD noob for a moment=20 (which really isn't that far from the truth) and I want to build a driver as a loadable module for testing. After moving to the appropriate directory in the source tree (/usr/src/sys/dev/XXX), what steps do I need to follow to build the driver as a module? Assume for the moment that I have already commented the driver out of my kernel configuration file (/usr/src/sys/<architecture>/conf/GENERIC) and rebuilt and installed that kernel. Dave
